Hamza El Din basically made it his mission to collate as much Nubian folk music as he could before the region was flooded for a massive dam. I believe this album represents part of that effort.

From my understanding the Sun City Girls were probably more out there than the tracks on Polytheistic Fragments. Many of the tracks are just Sir Richard Bishop on acoustic guitar but there is some nice playing on the there. Speaking of Sun City Girls do you have any recommendations? I've yet to track some down.
