Hi Gabe ! Thanx for sending us down memory lane - for as a young teenager, I was fortunate to witness some great acts at the Circus Brazil show in Dar es Salaam , Tanzania in the early sixties.( I am assuming that they must have been on a tour of Africa , including Kenya as you stated).
The flip side of the Extended Play (ep) 45 rpm Vinyl record was the very romantic Italian ballad- Manuela which to some fans was a better "number" than the ever-popular "Marina" by Rocco Granata which was introduced at the Show. I say this as the flip side of most Eps are basically " fill -ins".. However, Gabe if your memory allows, the trapeze artist and one of the most popular artistes was a gorgeous woman called Manuela.. I believe, she later married her trapeze partner. As usual, the lyrics were "laced" with nostalgia. Cheers. Tony Barros. Union, New Jersey. USA
