Ok i'm curious, where did you get this music from :-)

Some off cassettes we listened to in Kenya, some off the internet. I tried to reconstruct what I remembered from the taxi rides but I guess it's more nostalgia than the actual songs on the mixtape. Turned out nice though.

I was so happy in Nairobi as a child - it's a real treat to get props from Kenyans. Thank you!

Oh, and my favourite is No. 5: Jealousy by the Beach Scorpions. I've been looking for this in music ever since I first heard it.

Try listening again. I don't hear the breaks and yes, Kilimambogo are awesome.

Sounds like a good mix.I'm newish to 8tracks but I'm finding tracks 1&3 (Jambo Bwana Mombasa Roots/Katilina Kalambya Sisters) not streaming smoothly- little breaks of 1or2 secs every 2seconds. -I don't know if that is unusual but it is obviously spoiling the play. Track 2(Baba mkwe pt. 1 Les Kilimambogo Brothers Band) I think was perfect.
