- Description: "When the owner of the house comes, where will you run?" Meaning when you come to be married how will you account for yourself. Kasumba, when he finds the young woman of his own village standing about the street corners of Kampala, is about to arresr them and send them back home. Kasumba himself was present at the recording. He was a representative of the Ssaza Chief Kago. It is not unusual for a singer to sing about those present, and he enjoys within reason a Jester's licence of the speech. Topical song, with 1 tall, cylindrical, open and pinned drum, 1 large conical laced drum (-14.22301-) and hand clapping (-12.03-).

- Description: The literal translation was:- "Alive, but he still calls my name." which means:- "I am alive but still in the favour of the Kabaka. He still asks me to play for him." This is a very old song with a rather sinister implication as the Kabakas (Kings) of old were inclined to put to death those who displeased them and particularly musicians who failed to play well. Historic song with 1 tall cylindrical pinned drum, 1 large conical laced drum and hand clapping (-12.03-).

- Description: In the background can be heard the shrill continous noise of the cicada beetles in the trees nearby. "The man who gives you a child is better than one who only gives you money. Prostitutes are bad. Money is better than women. If you buy a bicycle you can carry milk to market." Here again the penetrating sound of the cicada beetles or crickets compete with the music. Morality song with 8 string Endongo bowl lyre, 1 string Ndingidi bowl lute, 1 conical Ntenga drum, laced, single.

- Description: Kawulu, a Ganda man, was a cannibal. One day he met a woman, he caught her, killed her and ate her. The Hima people reported the matter to the police and Kawulu was taken to prison. After he was caught the Ganda denied everything saying they were never cannibals, but rather it was the Soga people who had done this dreadgul thing. So the case was heard in Jinja instead of in Kampala, but eventually he confessed and was hanged. So it was a Ganda and not a Soga who was proved to be a cannibal. Topical song with Ntongoli bowl lyre.
