Album Reviews

Review: 

These recordings are the fruits of an all night studio session held at the end of Hukwe Zawose's visit to London in 1985 and we're originally released on vinyl only in 1987. The musical result, with its complex accompaniment of thumb pianos, marimbas and fiddles is intense "bush music for hi-fi listening". This is the first time any of these recodings have been available in downloadable form.
