It would seem from the provided album scans (thx!) that the vinyl compilation from which this song was taken is called "All Your Favourite Hits No. 3" (Entertainment LP, EDLP 1015). It's tragic that the record does not list the actual artists' names (or does it?). My question is: Since the post was first made (way back in 2012), have you ever discovered or come across the name of the artist who does "Mathuba Difala"? Or is that information lost forever?<br /><br />Not a big deal -- just curious. It's frustrating to add a song to one's own personal hit parade without knowing who even performs it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7400063036260543724.post-84622089129160095582016-09-01T18:22:21.991+01:002016-09-01T18:22:21.991+01:00Are there still active links for these mixes?Are there still active links for these mixes?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12556136720854034446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7400063036260543724.post-50246194902993248642016-02-08T14:08:22.366+00:002016-02-08T14:08:22.366+00:00Thanks to you Siemon.

I guess this is other Dlamini here, not soul but folk sounds.<br />Great musical universe from South Africa anyway!!<br />I have known one artist from there i like him so much.<br />The singer and guitarist Vusi Mahlasela. I love his sound, voice and guitar. His sound and style feed my soul a lot, friend.<br />Best wishes always!!<br /><br />DavidDavid Amerikañahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05156137695144471139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7400063036260543724.post-1289213919802149542016-02-07T19:17:00.333+00:002016-02-07T19:17:00.333+00:00Thanks again!

Thanks for it.<br />I was searching for the b-side of Walter Dhlamini's single 'Lonely City', titled 'I'll Never Love You Again'.<br />I see it is a rare single. I can't find more info about this artist yet. <br />Sounds so easy but magic with this organ accompanying his voice.<br />Maybe you can gift to us this b-side in next compilation. <br />It will be so great.<br />Pleeeeease Siemon and ElectricJive team.<br />Many thanks in advance.<br /><br />DavidDavid Amerikañahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05156137695144471139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7400063036260543724.post-37372547601695966002015-01-20T05:02:33.151+00:002015-01-20T05:02:33.151+00:00Links are up!Links are up!Siemon Allenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10164680406742335680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7400063036260543724.post-46841952124366675642014-12-14T20:56:15.456+00:002014-12-14T20:56:15.456+00:00Has this post since been removed?

A number of these ...Thanks Robby for your comments!<br />A number of these tracks are actually cover versions by uncredited groups on budget labels. Though I must say pretty well executed as they are super close to the originals. A great example is "Breadwinner" where (although very similar) the cover runs at 3 mins while the original (featured here) is 15 mins long.Siemon Allenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10164680406742335680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7400063036260543724.post-46788388062928775102012-12-03T08:24:39.346+00:002012-12-03T08:24:39.346+00:00Great great oldies really nice down memory lane......Great great oldies really nice down memory lane...,just some corrections from Vol I, No3 "Baba Ka Sibongile" and No.11 "Ngeke Silibale" and from Vol II No.16 "Mama Ka Sibongile" the three songs were done by the legendary Soul Brothers....Iam sure the Band is still around in South Africa<br /><br />Robby Mbewe, <br />Lusaka, ZambiaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7400063036260543724.post-6954392477143570422012-11-28T00:45:01.982+00:002012-11-28T00:45:01.982+00:00great mix. long time follower of the blog, just w...great mix. long time follower of the blog, just wanted to say thanks for all of the great music you share.Jeffnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7400063036260543724.post-22285000977750815382012-11-26T11:37:57.135+00:002012-11-26T11:37:57.135+00:00Wow, some tasty material here - I can't wait t...Wow, some tasty material here - I can't wait to devour it all.
