Radio Bemba Sound System is the 2002 released and first live album in Manu Chao's solo career . It is the accompanying CD to the live DVD Babylonia en Guagua , which was filmed on September 4th and 5th, 2001 as part of the Próxima Estación: Esperanza tour . Many of the songs on Radio Bemba Sound System , such as B. "Machine Gun", "Peligro", "Mala Vida", "King Kong Five" and "The Monkey" are songs that were actually recorded by Manu Chaos' previous band, Mano Negra . Radio Bemba Sound System is also the name of Manu Chaos backing band. "Radio bemba" is a colloquial Cuban term for "rumor mill," where "bemba" means "lip". The term "sound system" in this context is probably an allusion to the Jamaican sound system culture .
