Description: The song upon which this tune is based referred to Katego, an important man who wore a curious head-dress. So all the people said "Katego is a wixzard." This recording was intended to show the drumming process and the melody on which the piece is based, individual players being heard on their own. Instrumental tunes, with Madinda xylophone and 5 laced drums (-14.99-).
