LES TROUBADOURS DU ROI BAUDOUIN - MISSA LUBA
Here's an album from Les Troubadours Du Roi Baudouin. A Congolese choir led by the Belgium missionary Father Guido Haazen O.F.M. (Order of Friars Minor) (b. 27 September 1921, d. 20 August 2004).
Led Zeppelin named them as on of their influences, The Kyrie was used in the Mexican film Un alma pura (1965) and the MGM film The Singing Nun (1966). The Sanctus featured prominently in Lindsay Anderson's 1968 film If ... starring Malcolm McDowell, with which the Mass was for a time closely identified. It was also used in Never Let Me Go (2010), Lost and Delirious (2001), and the telemovie Deadly Voyage (1996), in which it accompanied the closing credits. The Gloria featured in Pier Paolo Pasolini's The Gospel According to St. Matthew (1964).
The Clash refer to the recording in the lyrics of "Car Jamming" on their 1982 album Combat Rock. The cover of the Troubadours' album appears briefly in the Stanley Kubrick film A Clockwork Orange (1971) as Malcolm McDowell's character, Alex, strolls through a record shop....
Certainly a very different Christmas album this one....

ENJOY!!!!

Thanks didn't know about this group, typically the type of album i enjoy like Chorale Saint-Joseph de Medina de Dakar or Noviciat des Soeurs Missionnaires de Notre-Dame d'Afrique, but it's hard to find others in the same vein so thanks a lot
