Here is the Rhodesia volume of the Hugh Tracey anthologies of field recordings from Africa on Kaleidophone. There will be two more records with guitar music coming, but I have still to locate them to take new photos as the ones I had are a bit to blurred to present here. But there are so many things to post so do not worry. It still feels like I have just begun! Hope you enjoy this one!

Yes, I am sorry about the hickups but I was away and a few things went haywire. I will try to make more stable posts in the following days...
