I actually got this cd because the artist, Ayub Ogada is on it. I was happy that all the music on it was so wonderfully put together. There isn't 1 song on this cd that I dont like. I would highly recommend this cd to anyone that is tired of "carbon copy" music that is played over & over on the radio. It is a refreshing change & will help invigorate your mind.

Only a listen to this incredible and sublime collection with convince noise-weary ears and world-heavy souls of the healing power of the human voice.
I would love to hear a collection of this type which featured the voices of African women like Angelique Kidjo and Miriam Makeba.
Get it. You'll revisit it over and over.

Ive had this album for four years, I still listen to it on A weekly basis and never tire of it.It's very soul stirring,the first of the songs kothbiro is the most haunting of all of them.Dala and ondiek are my next favourites.
It's a wonderful album to have when life gets very chaotic and busy,it stops you right in your tracks.Highly reccommended as an introduction to the very wide scope of african music.
Uplifting January 25, 2004

I heard this CD when visiting Bogota. I walked into a gallery of the local artists and the music captured my soul. I was so moved by the melodies, I had to find out the title of the CD. The music is transcendent. My favorites are Kothbiro, Ondiek and Sutu Kun, and the invigorating, rythmic Ekbobo. But the best has to be the Wasuze Otya track with the laughter of the singers at the end of the track; you can sense their joy in their songs. The music is so uplifting and premeates with a positive feeling -- you can tell that the singers feel joy in living, and in life through the range of wonderful music; you want to go to their land, and be in their space. Wonderful!!! A must have!!!
