Infinite Culture: On The Link Between African And Irish Music
Love history. Love music. Love studying about “fusion”. All of our cultures are nothing but peoples mixed together.

For me, this one statement summarizes how it happened: “Travel and trade was alive and well, and the exchange of music had to have been part of the process.” Of course ... that could be wrong. But anyway ... sounds logical.
