OM 001       Hafusa Abbasi & the Yahoos Band    Karibu Ramadhani/Ewe Mola

Never let it be said that Melodica didn’t touch all bases as the Nairobi firm distributed this 1970s taarab tune welcoming the arrival of Ramadan.

Another single by Hafusa Abbasi can be found on the Africa label (AFR 1024), though taarab as a genre is otherwise seriously underrepresented in this discography.
