♬ Merci Roi Champro

Champro King et L’Orchestre Cobantou were from Zaïre – which is now the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Whereas L’Orchestre Cobantou recorded a staggering 73 singles total during their decade long run, only three were with Champro King.

I have not been able to find much information about Champro King – also see Roi Chanmpro and Roi Champro King, but there is an extensive post on the history of L’Orchestre Cobantou over at the Worldservice blog.

If you have any further information about this artist or anything else about this recording, please leave it in the comment section below.

Catalog number 90.276 on African Records of France, released 1968.
