A huge thanks to the band for giving me the opportunity to record their (audio) session live.

Eda Brig - Best Of You (Foo Fighters Live Recording Cover)

Inspired by and Sampled from the Singing/ Chirping of the Hadada Ibis A.K.A Mpa Abaana.

Mpa Abaana

1987

Bangili was originally written by Leo Mkanyia, which featured first on his debut EP, Dunia Hii, and later rerecorded for his second LP, also titled Bangili, which featured guest singers, Makadem and Winyo.

This is my take on what I consider to be a great example of Swahili Blues, a term originated by Mkanyia himself.

Bangili

I just found this gem on an audio letter from my father back in 1976. He posted it to me on a cassette - you know one of those things you stick a pencil in to wind it up. Complete with the sounds of the forest surrounding the house he was living in at the time. Listen to more audio from and about Salleh Ben Joned in my two-part Australian Broadcasting Corporation documentary about him - 'Salleh Ben Joned: A Most Unlikely Malay'
