  4. Ah! - from the first note, I DO have this, but with a later, colour cover, on CD. This, and Louis Moholo's Spirits Rejoice are 2 of the great 1970's afro-jazz records.
    I urge anyone to download this great, soulful album - it's wonderful!
    Wallofsound, your Dudu discography is a great resource - thanks for the reminder. :-)

  5. It was re-released on Earthworks. The Electric Jive blog has some great live recordings.

  7. Nice seeing this up again. I uploaded the third - Flute Music - recently and have started reupping the 80s afro-funk-jazz whatchamacallit records on Jika. All terrific, if you ask me (which shouldn't be necessary).
