#jukeboxFridayNight #AWiderWorld A chum burnt this to a CD for me years and years ago, and I love it Umeko Ando - Upopo Sanke I've never known much about it, but the Bandcamp writeup tells me: "Upopo Sanke" means "Let's sing a song" in the Ainu language. Umeko Ando (1932-2004) was one of the best-known artists of the Ainu, an indigenous, long-oppressed community in northern Japan. She sings their traditional songs with Oki Kano on the tonkori harp, who also recorded the album. They are joined by members of the vocal group Marewrew, as well as Ainu percussionists, a string player and a male vocalist who provides rhythmic shouts and throat singing." https://youtu.be/_aDasQJxMgI?is=FBIe50_Z6-b7h8si
