- Babeti Soukous is a 1989 studio/live album by DR Congolese soukous musician and pioneer Tabu Ley Rochereau (using the longer name of Tabu Ley Seigneur Rochereau) and his band the Afrisa International Orchestra. Recorded for the duration of only one night as a live studio session at Real World Studios, Wiltshire, England in 1989, the album was one of the four albums released to establish Peter Gabriel's world music label Real World Records, and was one of the first recordings Rochereau created after exiling to France in 1988. Rochereau used the album as an opportunity to re-record highlights from the previous 20 years of his career. While the album is a soukous recording, described in its liner notes as "Zairean pop," it also features elements from other genres, such as Latin music, jazz, rock and R&B, as well as Congoloese dance rhythms such as madiaba and kwassa kwassa. The album also marked Rochereau's new preference for solo horns as opposed to ensemble horns. Upon release, the album received critical acclaim, with music critics acclaiming the album's vibrancy and experimentation. The recording was one of Rochereau's most successful albums and pathed the way for his later successful albums, including Muzina (1994) and Africa Worldwide (1996). (en)
