ZILIZOPENDWA....loko lumbo nelusikiree niko mwana..........ambango kumba igome..if anyone has that song am ready to pay for it

Chawucha MkaRigha na Mkwachu kwa kunizughunua aighu ya kisama. My challenge to you young people is: try to convince these "oldies" like me to make contributions in here. Kila umeri wonyu olole wawi widawuya bana na the multiplier effect idawoneka baada ya ngelo ndini sana.

Now for those very very old recorded Kidawida songs: In the mid fifties niko primary skuli Santa Jemusi it was the era of the gramafone yewangwagha His Master's Voice. Mzee Patrice Mwazighe ( God rest his soul in eternal peace), wawae Nyambu of the rugby fame, had one of those gramafones. Yadakumbwa majera. Then visahani va 78rpm would be played. Among the songs would be songs like:-
Kibingilisho Igome, Mwai wa Kidawida, Nenda Mwaktau, Mao Nineke Pesa, Apa Nilowore Mka and many others. One I liked most then was Mwai wa Kidawida whose words were:

Mwai wa Kidawida kaenda na Mdawida Wadanughwa nanyuma naiseghe,
Kaenda na Mnyika( non-Mdawida) wadasighwa putu ndounughwa ni mundungi.
Isi dighoragha huwu de Wadawida, Wadawida x 3 waja wa asili,
Niko dawona dimghorie mabonyo ghenyu ghazamie.

Chorus

Ni ishiniko kwa Wadawida wadifusha waya x 2

By the way if one is interested most likely these songs can still be retrieved from the studios of Andrew Crawford. It may cost a fortune. Ni kusowa tu. I would produce a cassette for these oldies. Ungi onyu woko na mafungu ubonye ihi bidii?

As for the song Kumba Igome, this was quite recent and was composed by Mwambi of Mwangeka Band. Mwambi is alive and still active in music. Anybody knows where he could be based? He could throw some light where we can get his songs. What of Mwanedu FM?
