Orchestre Élégance Jazz

"Bedermos (sic!) was the leader of Elegance Jazz. Their origins go back to Leopoldville of the 1950s but they didn't last long. The group disbanded in the 1960s. However, in the early 1970s Bedermos made a comeback with new material. ... "Ngalula Marthe", was a big hit for him. Although the musicians that played on these recordings are called Elegance Jazz, they were in fact Luna National, the band of Bohomba Boteku and Djo Mali." africambiance.org, 19.2.2012. Djo Mali was a member for Zaiko Langa Langa and later for Odemba All Stars
