    All Music Guide Review

    A joyful, irrepressible album, Lightning over the River showcases the exuberant sounds of the Congolese soukous guitar. Many of the stars of this style are represented here, including Kanda Bongo Man on "Yesu Christo," Pepe Kalle & Popolipo with "Roger Milla," and Tabu Ley with "Ponce-Pilate." A fresh, spontaneous mix of swinging rhythms and expressive guitars, Lightning over the River is filled with beautiful, danceable moments. ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide
