A couple of singles, KD 3 and KD 4, turned up on Ebay in March 2011 and their appearance unlocked another part of the AIT master catalogue, which doesn’t list labels just catalogue numbers. As noted before, the AIT catalogue is not a perfect document. It lists two records as being KD1 and, curiously, has the same Nyancha Mirieri/Nyancha Brieri mispelling as is found in the Awendo Rakido listing.

Both Manga Kings and Nyancha Mirieri Boys are Luo benga bands. I don’t know much about either, but the Electric Jive blog posted an LP of Orch Manga Kings songs, which you can download here.
