The fieldworker has captured the essence of the ceremony and excellent examples of the call and response form along with musical accompaniment. 23 tracks. 61 minutes. Recorded by Ken'ichi Tsukada. "It is to his [fieldworker, Ken'ichi Tsukada] credit that he took the time and personal energy to finally be trusted to observe and record these remarkable tapes." - Cliff Furnald, CMJ
