Songs Of Happiness, Poison & Ululat

Western Jazz Band

Songs Of Happiness, Poison & Ululat
For nearly twenty years the Western Jazz Band and dancing Club delighted East Africans. Formed in Dar es Salaam in 1959, just two years before the end of British adminisration in Tanganyika, many of the original members came from West Province, hence the name. Thier dabosa stule was famous for its crisp clear guitar work. There was no thumping kick drum. Rather a percussive stream from the congas, marvellously complex and interlicking guitars with occasional strumming on the pickups. And the songs? Songs about love, infidelity, deceit, poverty and the stregth and determination to overcome.
