TROUBADOUR AFC. 233
"African musicians in Sophiatown developed their own new sound called
Tsaba-tsaba. It combined African melody with American swing and jazz.
Tsaba-tsaba was essentially a working class form of dance music... Everybody
spoke of Tsaba-tsaba. There were no radios to broadcast it all over; but everybody
sang it. There were no printed copies of it, but some dance bands played it;
it had the spirit of Africa in it... Tsaba-tsaba eventually evolved into kwela."
