International relevance: **
Gothenburg's Mwendo Dawa already had
four albums behind them when they released this one in 1981. Core
members were the fine saxophonist Ove Johansson and the equally fine pianist Susanna Lindeborg
(Lindeborg was also in Salamander). ”Mwendo Dawa” features
contemporary jazz with fusion leanings – competent for sure
but fusionly unengaging. Mwendo Dawa is one of the groups that has
become better over time – their more recent outings with more prominent electronics to go along with the jazz improvisation are more imaginative and satisfying.
