- Description: Legends in this part of Africa, around the great lakes are often told to a rippling instrumental accompaniment especially to the trough zither. This song refers to the death of a certain Saza chief called Daudi. Rumour has it that after he was buried certain men (said to be socerers) went to the grave to dig him up. But just at the moment it began to rain and they diagreed so violently that they failed in their purpose and went away. The cries in the background from one of the spectators, they said, had nothing to do with the legend. The narrator unfortunately had a very husky voice. Legend in song, with 6 Budongo Likembe and 1 flat Nsaasi tin rattle.

He has been the offical flute player to the royal house of the Kyabazinga of the Soga people, ever since he was a young boy. The first version was recorded after midnight under a starlit sky, and in the second version he was accompanied by two old friends on the drum. The audience sitting around him had to join in as well. The tune "Akantaiba" is taken from a song said to be a century or two old which says, "If your wife is rude to you, she loves another. If your servant is rude to you, he wants to leave you." Flute tune with Ndele, end blown, notched and 4 holed flute (14.2-).

- Description: Sheik Kinyiri a Soga Moselm is a fat man and a Muloga wizard wanted to poison him and eat him. This was decided at a meeting of the wizards secret society which is presided over by their President, the Muloga Omukuli who sits on an ant hill, with all his wizards around him. Apparently the plan was not successful as Sheik Kinyiri is still alive, as fat and happy as ever. The set of Budongo Likembe covers a range of four octaves from 1040 vs. down to 65 vs. Topical song, with 6 Budongo box resonated Likembe.
