Track A1; Kilume Dance of the fun loving Akamba people, is sedately energetic and traditionally restricted to elders- of both sexes-of this large Kenya ethnic group.
Track A2; Typical of border districts of Uganda and the eastern Congo is this enchanting beat, played by two leisurely drummers as evening falls.
Track A3; Spirit-exorcism, a rhythm of Kenya's Teita people, in a rare, secret ceremony called 'Upepo".
Track A4; Gay Giriama of the Kenya's coastlands play their drums under the palms when the hot African sun makes work a burden.
Track B1; Uganda drums, in a banana grove outside Kampala.
Track B2; Chuku drummers from Embu district Kenya, perform precise and measured dance movements, carrying their tall drums between their legs.
Track B3; aboard a dhow, sailors celebrate a home-coming with happy rhythms.
Track B4; Kamba drummers - some of Africa's most acomplished-are urged on by dance leaders eager to call villagers into the moonlight.
