Not in common
Two songs today. They have nothing in common.
First, I don’t know what made me think of Letta Mbulu this morning. Maybe it’s the below-zero morning temperatures that make me long for warm climates, or the blue skies outside, or the transport union strife in France. Who knows. Point is, Kube is what I need this morning.
Second, those of you who keep up with the Africanambiance forum may already have it, or you might have heard them on Soul Sides or Matsuli, but Wganda Kenya is also what I need this morning.
Ah, the mid-week playlist.
Letta Mbulu – Kube
Wganda Kenya – El Evangelio Calypso

Thanks for the Music,

I remember a song by Letta Mbulu called “The Music Man” that I would hear on the radio here in the US many, many years ago. I tried finding it on the net, but without much success. However, I did stumble upon a Hugh Masekela album called “The Chisa Years: 1965-1975 (Rare and Unreleased)” on which she appears. Great album, too! I just love her on “Mahalela.”
Anyway, thanks for this song!
