Welcome follow up the the well received first volume of 70s Shima Uta island pop tunes. Traditional and modern sounds are mixed together in an entirely natural way, long before the concept of 'world music' when island and western sounds weren't competing with eachother, but in the Okinawan style, came together to create something new.
