If you check Electric Jive out, there is a Mabel Mafuya special there, two of the tracks were co-written with Mary Thobei, including the activist song Azikhwelwa about the bus boycotts in Alexandra in 1957 (Alexandra Casbahs). I will make a plan later this year to share two other recordings - another co-written with Mafuya for "The Happy Darkies" - and then Mary Thobei and the No Nakme Darkies performing two uncredited compositions: Bana Beso and Baheso on the HIT label.Chris Albertynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18201820803406421446noreply@blogger.com
