Notes:

Live ceremonial music, studio recordings and popular songs from Haiti.

Produced in association with the museum exhibition and exhibition catalog, Sacred Arts of Haitian Vodou, presented by the Fowler Museum of Cultural History at the University of California at Los Angeles.

This album is sequenced according to the basic regleman, or rules, of Vodou, to guide the listener through the proper "line" of spirit songs, from the "cool" Rada through the Ogouns, into "hot" Petwo and Banda and then to Bizango (secret societies) and Rara.

Track 2 recorded at Funky Slice Studios, Brooklyn, NY.
