SUNB 765            Jamasis Sound Band                                    Lembeita Pts 1 & 2                        1980

An intriguing single from 1980. When Ray Templeton sent in details and a scan of it, at first it didn’t really register with me as the directory already has singles on Sun Eclipse, Sunset and Sunshine.

Then I looked at it more closely and realised it features two languages, Swahili and Kallenjin, on the label. I’m pretty sure it is in the latter, especially given that the song is credited to Joel Arap Kileges. The band, though, is a new one on me.
