"Bernard Kabanda is a minstrel with an intriguing collection of tales that include social and political commentry and ribald humour. The songs are sung in Luganda, the local language of Uganda's capital, Kampala, but Womad Select have given us a brief synopsis of each song - delightful stories of cheating women and drinking, and more serious matters of murder, AIDS and the liberation struggle against Idi Amin's horrendous dictatorship.

"This CD is an informal recording of great charm and is truly fresh and different to anything we have heard before from Central and East Africa." Martin Sinnock. SONGLINES
