Not so recent, really. The album is on Real World. Gabriel makes a brief,
non-producerial appearance. Eno did the production. David Rhodes is also
on it a bit. And the singer's *Ugandan*, not Kenyan. His name is Geoffrey
Oryema [his father was terminated in a prejudicial manner by Idi Amin
Dada while serving as....I used to remember.... head of the air force?],
and the album is called "Exile." It's very lovely - Eno really doesn't
get in the way of the basic performance at all. It reminds me a bit of
the feel and the acoustic space of Danny Lanois' "Acadie." Very quiet
and introspective. I just played "Piny Runa Woko" as a part of the annual
"Brian Eno Birthday Party" on my radio show last Sunday.

I hope this is of some help.

Still, the world that is or was the person shimmers uneasily at him, in the
blank frame that waves at nothing (one arm up, legs bent) like an exuberant
bit of graffiti. Stenciled on the damp ground, it's as pure and inviting as
a footprint: he's ready to hurl himself into the mold and test the fit.
