Product Description
The Sweet Soul Of Kenya resuscitates a long-lost gem of a disc by the East African David Nzomo Trio from 1950s Kenya. Listen in on a glimpse of eight beautiful selections of swinging guitar and rich male/female harmonizing, sung in the native Kikamba language. Cradled by jazzy rhythms and upbeat melodies, The Sweet Soul Of Kenya never once lets on that the quiet revolt against countrywide rights to organize was illegal.
