Franco & Le TPOK Jazz- Arzoni (Franco) 1980

Jana usiku aboard a unique shuttle, the radio was tuned in to Meru FM with a guy called Public Noise Maker. He was playing Franco’s music through and through in remembrance of his death. This song caught my ear because its a good jam and also from the way he described it.
Rhumba lovers, jam on!

Thanks.
I learn new things everyday.
Kumbe he was just advertising a tailor? He must have been a great one.

He was also paid by a Volkswagen dealer called AZDA to endorse them in the song Azda.

Lot’s of stations playing songs in memory of Franco’s death anniversary.
Franco did songs about tailors. Fabrice and others.
There"s one he mocks a “tailor” by asking “Okotonga na nini?”
