Simply breathtaking... really a lost classic! Two tracks from the album are featured on "Next Stop... Soweto" (Vol. 2 + 3), that series was the inspiration for this release, you can find it in my collection :)

Looping vocals and guitar patterns, with a bit of percussions. It's very hypnotizing, nearly leading to a trance. It is also finelly executed. I believe it must have been a particularly good live performance.
