vinyl with free download. the good ones is a trio of rwandan genocide survivors who play joyous, acoustic love songs written in the ancient local kinyarwanda street dialect of their nation's capital, kigali. adrien kazigira, stany hitimana and jeanvier havugimana recorded the songs collected on 'kigali y' izahabu' over the course of one summer evening on the back porch of a friend's home. in a style often referred to as 'worker songs from the streets', these simple, direct and plaintive love songs speak more to the healing power of peace than a thousand academic treatises or preachy goodwill ambassadors ever could. this is some beautiful, heartfelt music of real integrity.
