CD Hotlist, CD Review >>

Stella Chiweshe plays the mbira, or thumb piano, and sings, and she has made a fine career in a field dominated by men. This is a double album with oddly named halves – Trance Hits covering more traditional styles, and Classic Hits displaying a more modernized style featuring electric guitars. A fine album, but by all means start with Thomas Mapfumo if you want to explore the music of Zimbabwe. (SA) 10/01/06 >> go there
