Jill Turner celebrates the return of Bonga. Variously dubbed the Angolan Rod Stewart or Julio Iglesias but who cares, Bonga, the semba superstar is back with remarkably, his 26th album, Bairro. Fifteen tracks recorded in Lisbon and Paris but rooted most strongly in his childhood neighbourhood in Angola. With wry words of wisdom and music to move you, what better way to blow away the winter blues and the bad news of war, global economic turmoil and high energy bills.
