I had the pleasure of seeing this true gentleman perform 3 times, including once with the London Community Gospel Choir. He was as happy in person as he sounds on his records, and delighted to stop and chat with fans. RIP Lion of Africa.

A great showman . He was unique. A Cameroonian master. Not soul but the music was so uplifting and that Afro-beat was just infectious. R.I.P.
