While touring Kenya with his musical group in the late 1950s, David Nzomo realized that it was sometimes difficult to keep the audience's attention during stage set-up and transitions. To fill the dead time, Nzomo played songs he used for weddings, parties, and local get-together, and that music subsequently turned into the core of his repertoire. He sings in Swahili, Kamba, and English on themes of courtship, marriage, life in a foreign country, and Kenya's independence. Nzomo's liner notes include musical notation, lyrics, and track notes.
