Hummin' With the Bees!




My ol' buddy Ken Chitika loaned me this 45 many years ago. The Katenga Humming Bees, led by guitarist T.C. Katenga, were a popular band in Malawi during the 1970s. Other than that, I can't tell you anything about them. I love the rough and ready quality of these two tracks, issued on the Zakwathu label (MX 104) circa 1973:

Katenga Humming Bees - Musadabwe Jane


Katenga Humming Bees - Pasilya Po
