African Jive Threatens

Rock 'n' Roll

By DAVID T. K. WONG

Singapore. Watch out, Hongkong, the Kwela is coming

to town!

From the jungle depths of dark Africa It has come and It has already got Singapore and Indonesia in its grip.

What is it? It is an African jave, the latest challenge to rock 'n' roll. Its origins are obsecure, It to but African youths dance penny-whistle bands.

It was performed here for the first time at a Christ nas party by London dance teacher Anne Harrison and her husband Denis Horusey and it became immediate hit.

Here Next Month

Anne and Denis will be next bringing it to Hongkong month when they go north for a holiday.

"It's akin to rock 'n' roll and its easy to follow," Anne said. "I performed it at Djakarta inst month and the Indonesians fell in love with it”

She thinks it will have a big success in this part of the world If local bands take it up.
