Recorded in Kisumu, Kenya on New Year's Eve 2010, this is an intimate home recording session with the great roaming Luo guitarist Olima Anditi. The blind musician has been traveling the trucking routes around Lake Victoria for decades,playing haunting, gorgeous tunes passed down through generations of artists. He's a local legend, and his tales of love, morality and politics are widely known. This intimate session is being released for the first time on vinyl. Includes 12 page booklet featuring an essay on the controversial origin story of Olima Anditi and lyrics in English and Luo.
