Gotta love these!
This one seems to be in French, either way I can't follow a word - but you really don't need to, just keep watching, and look out for one big bad finger pick!

Thanks Bod. They sound great! My favourite instrument there is the kalimba (thumb piano), especially putting it into the large bowl for amplification.
I have a few traditional African instruments that I used to dabble with; couple of kalimbas, a balafon, a talking drum, a djembe and some Morrocan porcelain drums. They're great to use in recording studios for getting different sounds.
This is cool. These people became quite famous a few years ago when the world discovered this clip of film, they came to Europe and I think also played in the USA. This is still my favourite clip of film of them...Staff Benda Bilili...
Shine On
Michael.

Many thanks to Bertrand N'Zoutani, that guy is knowing what he is talking about ("pluri arc" & "thumb piano"). ( I understood very well his meaning)
