From the label page:
“Twinned with the album of Ugandan court music SWP 008, this cd features music by the people for the people, for their own enjoyment – secular, worldly music free of any court constraints. Likembes, harps, horn ensembles, flutes, etc.

Lyrics of the opening track: ‘All things in nature love each other, the lips love the teeth, the beard loves the chin, and all the little ants go br-r-r-r together!'”

Enjoy!
