Modern Sound Records (studio musicians) play "Revolution" I LOVE this Nashville label. Always see them in thrift stores. Bad versions of great songs. Why pay more for the real thing when you can get the modern sound for $1.98?

Much of the background music for the explanation of Kwaanza is from the LP "Olatunji! Drums of Passion" (1960-Columbia Records) which sold 5 million copies! This LP of Nigerian song and drumming is considered to be the first "World Music" recording and has been sighted as a huge influence on many artists such as Santana and Mickey Hart.
