Description
??
Two unspoilt guys play and sing a rhythmic number. The open string banjo leads,
and the guitar gives a few solo riffs, but it mostly strums the rhythm in high or bass notes.
While the tunes are driving and up-tempo, the vocal parts are, nonetheless, cool and laid-back duetts.
Typical 1950's suburban music, right in the middle between traditional and modern afro-pop.
The recordings were made for an Indian-owned record company in Nakuru, Kenya, so, probably
the musicians came from there, too. The disc was, however, pressed in Kampala, Uganda.
