You might also want to check out the version I learned it from, Taj Mahal's, from Shake Sugaree, his children's record. Taj, whom I find normally to be quite astute, not only gets the title wrong (Quavi Quavi), he incorrectly identifies it as a fruit seller's song from 'Senegambia.' Imagine my surprise when I found Sibanda's version on the 'Origins of Guitar Music in Eastern Congo and Northern Zambia.' Otherwise it is, of course, a delightful recording.<br /><br />Thanks for another great article,<br /><br />Dan (lonesome d string band)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
