- 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.

When asked why they played music like this, they replied, "To give our haters courage." In view of the severe troubles with which they and their people were to be confronted in the years ahead one can only hope that their music did indeed give them and their families that courage to face their ordeals in the Kasai and the Katanga so shortly to overtake them. The flute player uses voiced notes while he blows. The music is sometimes played to the "Sultan", the chief, 'in order to refresh his spirit'. Nyundu Gabriel said that when he was feeling sad, tired of depressed he would play this music to cheer himself up. The Chisanzhi (Mbira) keeps up a fascinating accompaniment. (See also TR 39 and TR 40). Self delectative song with sibe blown flute and Chisanzhi (-13.37206 x 18-)
