Staying with an African theme and moving to Malawi. This time listening to Wired For Sound - Malawi which is the second in the Wired For Sound series out of South Africa. This album was recorded on location at local community radio stations where the project installed solar powered recording equipment for local musicians to use. Profits from the album go to supporting these community radio stations. Malawi is a very beautiful country which I have memories of from travelling there in my childhood. The country in addition to being very poor was hit very hard with the AIDS epidemic which pretty much wiped out the middle age population so that the younger generation moving into adulthood now grew up without their parents.
