Radio Bemba Sound System is the name of Manu Chao's backing band. The name "Radio Bemba" refers to the word-of-mouth system used by Cuban led rebels under Fidel Castro and Che Guevara to communicate with each other in the forest of the Sierra Maestra in the early days of the Cuban Revolution. "Radio bemba" is Cuban slang for "rumor mill," bemba meaning "lip." The term "sound system" in this context is a likely reference to Sound System. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Radio+Bemba+Sound+System
