		<description><![CDATA[Two songs today.  They have nothing in common.
First, I don&#8217;t know what made me think of Letta Mbulu this morning.  Maybe it&#8217;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 [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A really quick post before I have to run into work.
Today&#8217;s track is once again from an Original Music release, Siya Hamba! 1950s South African Country And Small Town Sounds, a compilation of popular music in South Africa at the time.
I agree with the liner notes when they refer to the 1950s as the glory [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A random morning shuffle of not-yet-listened-to albums brings us Lungiswa&#8217;s cover of Marvin Gaye&#8217;s classic, Inner City Blues, sung in the Xhosa language.  
Lungiswa is a young South African female vocalist from Cape Town.  You may know her already from her work with Amampondo.
I thought I&#8217;d have a dig around for other versions [...]]]></description>

That said, I&#8217;ve secretly been loving a drum n bass throw-back [...]]]></description>

That puts my mini-collection at twelve.  Nothing compared to this guy, but one day I&#8217;ll have all 39.  If that ever happens maybe I&#8217;ll see what I can do [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Guest post today by Benn loxo listener, Grant:
&#8220;A lot of south african mbaqanga music is ruled by three chord theory but the musicians don&#8217;t seem to get tired of it. they just dig it deeper and deeper.
The Soul Brothers had been producing hits in South Africa for twenty years before they brought out this album. [...]]]></description>

Vikings feat. Al Bentley &#8211; Kansas City
Recently I discovered that my second cousin was South Africa&#8217;s &#8220;king&#8221; of rock and roll. After some digging amongst family members and some web research and requests I managed to get a CD-R of his hits. The music is mostly  derivative [...]]]></description>
