Funny how I don't understand the language but the song continues to be top of my playlist when it comes to Africa oldies tunes. Can even sing the lyrics as I have been listening to this since the early 80s.
"...music is infectious: it both begs for and demands your ears. It wounds when it’s summoned to heal. It urges us to forget at the same time that it tickles the memory awake. It fills the air, flows through the bloodstream and carries the singer and his audience to the edges of the universe, where only imagination can reach. It abandons them there, lost and enjoying their new state." - Letlapa Mphahlele
lovely women with lovely voices..can't forget them! my love for them grew when I was only four...my uncle will always listen to them whenever he came back from work..hence I came to love their music...
So emotionally drenched. Reminds me of Lady Selbourne, then my father boarded in Pimville, then we moved to Mamelodi East, then to Zebediela and commuted most of our lives
I was a lad growing up in Nigeria when I started enjoying their lovely tunes.Listening to them now takes me back over 40 yrs! Anyone know where I buy their music? Pleeeeaaaase.
