5 out of 5 stars Deep and Soulful.......2002-07-25

This recording is a real sleeper. Not well known, it nevertheless is one of the most rewarding pieces of modern African music that I have heard. Each track unfolds with a calm but insistent grace. The grooves are deep, and the horns, voices, and rhythm section interlock in compositions of perfect logic. The band traveled from Mozambique to the UK to record for Peter Gabriel's Real World label. Somehow they brought their magic into the studio. This is true soul music.

5 out of 5 stars Wondrous Music from Africa! Not to be Missed........2002-01-02

This is truly awesome inspiring music. I don't know what the words mean, but the music just takes hold of my soul. If you don't find yourself moving in response to the wonderful soulful sounds, you are DEAD.

These guys are the Bob Marley & The Wailers of Mozambique an impoverished African country.

The talent these guys have is unbelievable. This album was recorded in London, by a band that was too poor to bring their own instruments. They used house instruments and borrowed some from other session musicians. They recorded in one take. WOW.

Try this album. Not only will you be supporting a great band, but you will be helping make a difference. Brittney already has more money than she'll ever need. Support real musicians. Buy this album. YOU WILL THANK ME.
