about

Despite Madonna's adoptive meanderings, Malawi is still not fashionable. These crystal clear recordings of incredibly hip music show that it should be - for all music lovers! Pure wizardry by a tuned drum ensemble, a magical magogodo xylophone, a big band of kazoos, the amazing bamgwe zither, a capella vocals.
Recorded by Hugh Tracey in the 1950s, remastered by Michael Baird, this album is a compilation of the 2 cds SWP 013 'Southern and Central Malawi' and SWP 014 'Northern and Central Malawi'.
