- Description
- The cross rhythm of this song is typical, while the melodic formula of the lyric is one which has come up to N. Rhodesia from the south where it originated eight years ago in a song called "Vura matambo." from the Muzezuru tribe in S. Rhodesia. This demonstrates the persistence of the oral folk evolution of songs, now accelerated and more widely distributed by means of phonograhic recording. In the ordinary course of events, this tune would never have moved so far from its original home some 600 and 700 miles away. Morality song with guitar and bottle.
