Sorry, gang, about the absence. Summer break is now over.
Songs: Chemirocha III
Artists: Unidentified Kipsigis Performers
Albums: I heard Chemirocha song on the compilation Yeti 4
Also try: other Yeti series, the Excavated Shellac blog, or compilations that included this song including Kenyan Songs and Strings
Commentary: Chemirocha, named for Jimmie Rodgers (half-man, half-antelope) has a good story, read it here: http://excavatedshellac.com/2012/04/04/excavated-shellac-fifth-year-anniversary/.
I've also included another recorded by Hugh Tracey because it's just. so. darn. good. Chirombo Noye Nditerere apparently means "Spirit Listen to Me."
