Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars A powerful soulful journey of improvised sound........2004-08-29

FARAI: HIGH ENERGY JITI is a hit in just the opposite direction: where MATARE encouraged relaxation and mellowing out, FARAI is a 'get up and dance' album somewhat reminiscent of the Bundu Boys, but not as dominated by electric guitars - though there is a lead and bass guitar.
ýStrangely, there are no mbira players on FARAI: even Virginia Mukwesha confines herself to hosho (rattle) and vocals.ý
ýTo separate this group from other guitar-oriented jit groups, there are two marimba players: one a sporano marimba, the other an alto.
ýThere are also six female vocalists, plus Virginia Mukwesha: a male vocalist doubles on percussion and there is a (full kit) drummer.
