This is a recording that was done in Boston by producer, Mait Edey, featuring a young African vocalist/guitarist
from Uganda named Birigwa which was the title of the album(now a CD). Composer Stan Strickland, with an energized rhythm section, captured the spirit of Africa with his tune “Yelewa” as Birigwa inserts his “Mosquito Song” to draw on his cultural roots with his voice.
