Description: The story, of Ganga, one of a previous Kabaka's palace guards who 'stole some meat' and had the first joints of his fingers cutt off with a knife by one of the Kabaka's daughters. This brilliant singer is well known in Buganda. The clarity both of his singing and playing on the harp is delightful. Song with horizontal, arched, 8 stringed harp.
