More Info:

In 1982, Pacific music scholars Ad and Lucia Linkels recorded Music from Western Samoa: From Conch Shell to Disco -an album that samples the whole range of music in the island nation. Tracks include traditional signal music played on the conch shell; devotional choir music (Christianity, first brought by missionaries, has a strong presence on the island); and Western-influenced popular music, all of which show the successful blending of traditional and contemporary styles. Liner notes include track notes and discussion of Western Samoan culture, especially music and dance.
