Here's another in Likembe's continuing series of releases by Tanzania's legendary DDC Mlimani Park Orchestra, this one a little-heard LP from 1989, Dua La Kuku (Polydor POLP 589). I can't say too much about this one - contrary to the photos on the album sleeve, it seems to feature a stripped-down lineup for the band, at least their sikinde sound isn't as "beefy" as usual. It's fine music nonetheless. Tucheze sikinde! "Let us dance sikinde!"

Thanks! Anything with the DDC Mlimani Park Orch is always welcome in our household.
Be blessed!....I was totally confused what happened to my likembe.
Once again thanks for the this valuable post from Mlimani Park Orchestra. Looking forward more from this heavy weight band in my country Tanzania
Finally I find this album! My brother had a cassette tape of the songs in 1990. The tape disappeared sometimes later and that was that...thank you
