Album Notes & Community Reviews
Fusing traditional Shona mbira rhythms with electric guitars and effervescent pop sensibilities, this release catapulted the Harare group to international prominence. It perfectly captures the infectious, highly danceable Jit style that heavily influenced the expanding world music market of the 1980s.
