2003 release. Twinned with SWP Records' album of Ugandan court music SWP 008, this CD features music by the people for the people, for their own enjoyment -- secular, worldly music free of any court constraints. Likembes, harps, horn ensembles, flutes, etc. Become a convert to the lyrics of the opening track: "All things in nature love each other, the lips love the teeth, the beard loves the chin, and all the little ants go br-r-r-r together!" Historical recordings by Hugh Tracey. Includes a 16-page booklet.
