Esau Mwamwaya is a singer from Lilongwe, Malawi. He is best known for his collaboration, The Very Best with London based DJ/production duo Radioclit. His music has been described as an Afro-Western mix of dance, hiphop, pop and the traditional music of Malawi.
Esau Mwamwaya was born in Mzuzu, Malawi, but grew up in the capital, Lilongwe, where he played drums in various bands. He played with numerous artists including Masaka Band and Evison Matafale.
In 1999 he moved to London and while running a second-hand furniture shop in Clapton, East London, Esau sold a bicycle to the producer from the band Radioclit, Etienne Tron. Radioclit's studio was on the same street as Esau's shop, and eventually, Esau became friends with both Tron and Johan Karlberg aka Radioclit.
In 2008, the three men worked together to create a project known as 'The Very Best', releasing a critically lauded free mixtape through the label GREEN OWL() in collaboration with other indie artists, including M.I.A., Vampire Weekend, Architecture in Helsinki, BLK JKS, Santigold and the Ruby Suns. The songs are sung in Chichewa, the national language of Malawi.
Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown (April 18, 1924 — September 10, 2005) was an American musician from Louisiana and Texas. He is best known for his work as a blues musician, but embraced other styles of music, having "spent his career fighting purism by synthesizing old blues, country, jazz, Cajun music and R&B styles"
He was an acclaimed multi-instrumentalist, who played an array of musical instruments such as guitar, fiddle, mandolin, viola as well as harmonica and drums. He won a Grammy Award for Best Traditional Blues Album in 1982 for his album, Alright Again! He is regarded as one of the most influential exponents of blues fiddle and has had enormous influence in American fiddle circles.
Brown's two biggest musical influences were Louis Jordan and T-Bone Walker.
Born in Vinton, Louisiana, Brown was raised in Orange, Texas. His professional musical career began in 1945, playing drums in San Antonio, Texas. He was tagged with the "Gatemouth" handle by a high school instructor who accused Brown of having a "voice like a gate". Brown used it to his advantage throughout his career. His career was boosted while attending a 1947 concert by T-Bone Walker in Don Robey's Bronze Peacock Houston nightclub. When Walker became ill, Brown took up his guitar and quickly wrote and played "Gatemouth Boogie," to the delight of the audience right on the spot.
Harvey Mandel (born March 11, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, USA) is an American guitarist known for his innovative approach to electric guitar playing. A professional at twenty, he played with Charlie Musselwhite, Canned Heat, The Rolling Stones, and John Mayall before starting a solo career. Mandel is one of the first rock guitarists to use two-handed fretboard tapping.
Mandel was born in Detroit, Michigan but grew up in Morton Grove, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago.
His first record was the album Stand Back! Here Comes Charley Musselwhite's Southside Band in 1966 with Charlie Musselwhite. Described in 1997's Legends of Rock Guitar as a "legendary" album, it was influential in bridging the gap between blues and rock and roll, with Mandel's "relentless fuzztone, feedback-edged solos, and unusual syncopated phrasing." He relocated to the San Francisco Bay Area, performing often at a club called The Matrix, where local favorites like Jerry Garcia or Elvin Bishop would sit in and jam. He then met up with pioneering San Francisco disc jockey and producer Abe 'Voco' Kesh (Abe Keshishian), who signed Mandel to Philips Records and produced his first solo album, Cristo Redentor in 1968. In retrospect , Cristo Redentor bears some resemblance to cuts and songs that were on Wes Montgomery's albums. Mandel recorded with Barry Goldberg on a bootleg from Cherry Records and recorded with Graham Bond. He cut two more solo LPs for Philips, Righteous (1969) and Games Guitars Play (1970), followed by three more solo albums for independent label Janus in the early '70s which include Baby Batter.

This is a song with a message
I want you to heed my warning
I wanna tell you all a story
About this chick I know
They call her "Amphetamine Annie"
She's always shovelling snow
I sat her down and told her
I told her crystal clear
"I don't mind you getting high
But there's one thing you should fear"
"Your mind might think its flying, baby
On those little pills
But you ought to know it's dying, 'cause
Speed kills"
But Annie kept on speeding
Her health was getting poor
She saw things in the window
She heard things at the door
Her mind was like a grinding mill
Her lips were cracked and sore
Her skin was turning yellow
I just couldn't take it no more
She thought her mind was flying
On those little pills
She didn't it was going down fast, 'cause
Speed kills
Well I sat her down and told her
I told her one more time
"The whole wide human race has taken
Far too much methedrine"
She said "I don't care what a Limey says,
I've got to get it on
I'm not here to just see no man
Who come from across the pond
She wouldn't heed my warning
Lord, she wouldn't hear what I said
Now she's in the graveyard, and she's
Awfully dead
Whiskey and Wimmin almost wrecked my life
Whiskey and wimmin almost wrecked my life

They'll understand, all old coots are gone in their grave
But as long as they live there's gonna be figitin' in every town

I'll be the very last man who'll ever have to sing the blues
If there's no more lyin' and no more crime
And not another brother doin' any time
I'll be the last man, I'll be the last man
I'll be the very last man who'll ever have to sing the blues
If we all love one another and there ain't no war
And everyone's got more than they bargained for
I'll be the last man, I'll be the last man
I'll be the very last man who'll ever have to sing the blues
My life was beautiful 'till she walked out on me
Now I've got the blues again and it's clear to see
I'm not the last man, I'm not the last man
Well it's a low down kinda condition
Been running round my brain
Says it may drive me insane
And every organism
That I can hear and see
Seems to have the blues with me
So I went to the doctor
Sat down on her bed
Looked up right at her
This is what she said
"You're in a human condition
That's what's got you down
Human condition
Your face is full of frowns
You've got to stand your ground"
"Well, you're sad, weak and weary"
She went on to say
"Nothing seems to go your way"
"And though you've tried and tried
You can't be satisfied
No-one seems to treat you right"
"But there's one thing for certain
That you ought to know
There's been lots of people
In that scene before"
"You're in a human condition
That's what's got you down
Human condition
Your face is full of frowns
You've got to stand your ground"
Well I stood up and I left her
And slowly walked away
Looking for a brighter day
And as I thought about it
A new thought came to me
Maybe we cannot be free
Well a whole lot of bad things
The world might throw at you
Stand up straight and strong
It's the only thing to do
You're in a human condition
That's what's got you down
Human condition
Your face is full of frowns
Help me darlin' I can't do it by myself
help me darlin' I can't do it by myself
you can help a woman and gonna get me somebody else
Walk with me darlin' I wanna talk to you some time
walk with me darlin' I wanna talk to you some time
Long walk with me darlin' long consolate weary mine
The sun gonna shine in my back door some day
sun gonna shine in my back door some day
Long the moon come along Lord take all my troubles away
Lord bring me my nature get you're all morning gown
Lord bring me my nature get you're all morning gown
......Lord soothes for money and you no wanna shake

Lace up your boots and we'll broom on down
To a knocked out shack on the edge of town
There's an eight beat combo that just don't quit
Keep walkin' 'til you see a blue light lit
Fall in there and we'll see some sights
At the house, the house of blue lights.
They got fryers, broilers, Detroit barbecue ribs
But the treat of the trade is when they serve you those fine eight beats
You'll want to spend the rest of your nights
Down at the house, the house of blue lights.

Late last night, I sold away and cried
Late last night, I sold away and cried
Had the blues for Chicago, I just can't be satisfied
Blues on my brain, my tongue refused to talk
Blues on my brain, my tongue refused to talk
I was followin' my daddy but my feet refuses to walk
Mean old fireman, cruel old engineer
Lord mean old fireman, cruel old engineer
You took my man and left his mama standing here
Big red headline, tomorrow Defender news
Big red headline, tomorrow Defender news
"Woman dead down home, these old Chicago blues"

Now do you hear that rock'n'roll music,

Deep down in my shoes,
If you feel right your gonna stomp your feet,

Well it sure sounds good to me,
Well round the world baby,
Ever since I was a kid
You sure looked good to me
Now I'm a man full-grown, and I
Know what I hate to see
(Oh well)
It might be tomorrow
(Oh well)
I just don't know
(Oh well)
It might take years
I wonder when they're going to
Destroy your face
It may seem silly, but I don't like
What's been coming down
'Cause you've been looking good too long
To change your colour now
(Oh well)
They might test some bomb
(Oh well)
And scar your skin
(Oh well)
I don't think they care, so
I wonder when they're going to
Destroy your face
I hope I see you in the sky
At night when I get old
I hope you'll look about the same
As when I was a boy
(Oh well)
It gets me to gasping
(Oh well)
When I think about
(Oh well)
What they might do
I wonder when they're going to
Destroy your face
Well, you sure look good
In the sky at night
And it's sad to say
You won't shine so bright
Some day
When they're through with you
I bet you've seen the cloud we make
That covers up our rain
I wonder if you'll hide behind
A shroud like that some day
(Oh well)
I'm worried about it
(Oh well)
It makes me sigh
(Oh well)
I just can't help it
I wonder when they're going to
Destroy your face
(Oh well)
It might be tomorrow
(Oh well)
I just don't know
(Oh well)
It might take years
I wonder when they're going to

I went to Denver
Late last fall
I went to do my job
Yeah I didn't break any law
We worked a hippie place
Like many in our land
They couldn't bust the place
And so they got the band
'Cause the police in Denver
No, they don't want none of them long hairs hanging around
And that's the reason why
They want to tear Canned Heat's reputation down
You people in Denver
Will know what I mean
Yeah, the things I'm gonna tell ya
Yeah, you've all heard and seen
You remember when a cop on the beat
Used to rob and steal
Today they're gone, but the others get it on
So you know just how I feel
'Cause the police in Denver
Lord, they don't want none of them long hairs hanging around
And that's the reason why
They try to tear Canned Heat's reputation down
Yeah, they try to tear it down, boy
They ain't gonna do it though
Let me tell you this just one more time
Just one more thing I wanna tell ya
Before I go
It's a shame the Man in Denver
Has to lie and mistreat people so
Now six months ain't no sentence
One year ain't no time
When I hear from one to ten
It worries my troubled mind
'Cause the police in Denver
Lord, don't want no long hairs around
And that's the reason why
Ghetto music
Ghetto music
Ghetto music
Ghetto music
You're tuned into that easy listening sound
With a cap and gown, not a crown
No glitter, no makeup
Just smashin lyrics, that make up
The B, D, and the P
You pay for the hits, the advice is free
In this industry, we gotta grow
Commercial some go, but, y'know
Just as important as they are
So is the underground superstar (like me)
You gotta ask yourself one question
Do I speak facts, or do I start guessin?
Learn the lesson, before you plan your career
Commercial or underground, where
Do you fit, cause both sides write hits
And all is rap, I'll admit
But what I've come to explain
Is that these people love to play a game
They wanna make it seem like you're wrong
Or writin the reality song
Don't touch those issues, don't talk about dat
We don't take knowledge rap
What? They want you on their bases
Cause if you bring out the brown, you're racist
But if you bring out the pink, well wait, it's ok
Yeah, they won't stop it
I guess it's alright to act demonic
I guess it's alright to act demonic
But that's another chapter, in another book
I've come to show a different look
And that look is the whole of rap
Not just the commercial pap
But the underground, that raw ghetto sound
From which rap music was found
So you can't deny it, you cannot refuse it
I'll be rockin that ghetto music
People keep tellin me, "Kris! You need more radio
Yeah man, that's the way to go
You gotta be like so and so to go platinum,"
Then I attack em
I rhyme for the ghetto, I teach the ghetto
I cannot let go, change up? Heck no
In the ghetto, I stay mellow
We're in effect yo, ready, set, go
Fresh, for nineteen eighty-nine you suckers
Peace to P.E., and the Jungle Brothers
Others, have come, to master the art
They start, with heart, then fall apart
Like a dart I shoot for one target (BO BO)
Ghetto music, yeah they'll never chart it
Cause now in eighty nine, the purpose of a rhyme
Is to strengthen and uplift the mind
Although I'll achieve and achieve and achieve
It's simple, I'll never leave
Cause every time you front for respect you loose it
I'll rock ghetto music
Ghetto music
Ghetto music
Ghetto music
{Aye you want some of this shit
Naw, I don't want that shit
I don't give a fuck, I don't play dat shit
And I'm fin'nin' to buss a cap in a nigga
Man shut the fuck up}
{Slow down, slow down, slow down
You see that brick house right there
That's the nigga crib when he come out
You gotta tighten his ass up

If there's beef, cock it and dump it
The drama really means nothing to me
I'll ride by and blow ya brains out
There's no time to cock it
No way you can stop it
When niggas run up on you wit them thangs out
I do what I gotta do, I don't care I if get caught
The DA can play this motherfuckin' tape in court
I'll kill you, I ain't playin'
Hear what I'm sayin', homie I ain't playin'
Catch you slippin', I'ma kill you, I ain't playin'
Hear what I'm sayin', homie I ain't playin'
Keep thinkin' I'm candy till ya fuckin' skull get popped
And ya brain jump out the top like Jack-in-da-box
In the hood summer time is the killing season
It's hot out this bitch that's a good 'nuff reason
I've seen gangsta's get religious when they start bleedin'
Sayin', "Lord, Jesus help me" â€~cuz they ass leakin'
When they window roll down and that A.K. come out
You can squeeze ya ill handgun until you run out
And you can run for ya back-up
But them machine gun shells gone tear ya back up
God's on ya side, shit I'm aight wit that
â€~Cause we gon' reload them clips and come right back
It's a fact homie, you go against me ya fucked
I get the drop, if you can duck, ya luckier then Lady Luck
Look nigga, don't think you safe â€~cause you moved out the hood
â€~Cuz ya momma still around dog, and daddy ain't good
If you was smart you'd be shook of me
â€~Cuz I'd get tired of lookin' for ya
Spray ya momma crib
And let ya ass look for me
If there's beef, cock it and dump it
The drama really means nothing to me
I'll ride by and blow ya brains out
There's no time to cock it
No way you can stop it
When niggas run up on you wit them thangs out
I do what I gotta do, I don't care I if get caught
The DA can play this motherfuckin' tape in court
I'll kill you, I ain't playin'
Hear what I'm sayin', homie I ain't playin'
Catch you slippin', I'ma kill you, I ain't playin'
Hear what I'm sayin', homie I ain't playin'
My heart bleeds for you nigga, I can't wait to get to you
Behind that twinkle in ya eyes, I can see the bitch in you
Nigga you know the streets talk
So they'll be no white flags and no peace talks
I got my back against the wind
I'm down to ride till the sun burn out
If I die today
I'm happy how my life turned out
See the shootouts that I've been in I'm by myself
Locked up I was in a box by myself
I done made myself a millionaire by myself
Now, shit changed motherfucker I can hire some help
I done heard about the 50 grand you put in the hood
But ya shooter fin'nin' to get get shot it won't do 'em no good
With a pistol I define the definition of pain
If you survive ya bones'll still fuckin' hurt when it rains
Oh you a pro at playin' battleship well this ain't the same
Lil' homie this is a whole different type of war game
See the losers and up in shackles of motherfuckin' chains
Or laid out in the streets leakin' out they brains
If there's beef, cock it and dump it
The drama really means nothing to me
I'll ride by and blow ya brains out
There's no time to cock it
No way you can stop it
When niggas run up on you wit them thangs out
I do what I gotta do, I don't care I if get caught
The DA can play this motherfuckin' tape in court
I'll kill you, I ain't playin'
Hear what I'm sayin', homie I ain't playin'
Catch you slippin', I'ma kill you, I ain't playin'
Hear what I'm sayin', homie I ain't playin'
After the fist fights, it's gunfire boy, you get the best of me
If you don't wanna get shot, I suggest you don't go testin' me
All the wrong I've done, the Lord still keep on blessin' me
Fin'nin' to run rap 'cuz Dr. Dre got the recipe
Yeah, uh ha, aye Dre
You got me feelin' real bulletproof up in this motherfucker
â€~Cuz my windows on my motherfuckin' Benz is bulletproof nigga
â€~Cuz my motherfuckin' vest is bulletproof nigga
â€~Cuz my motherfuckin' hat is bulletproof nigga
But the Doc said if I get hit I might get a fuckin' concussion

Hey, let's do the Cherokee Dance
(Chick-a-bop, chick-a-bop, chick-a-boom)
Dance all wild and then romance
Take three steps forward and bow your head
Dance until your face turns red
Grab your gal and spin around
Take three steps back and then squad out
As you straighten up on your feet
Dance all around to this crazy beat
Take three steps forward and bow your head
Body's damp and face is red
Grab your gal and spin around
Take three steps back and then squad out
As you straighten up on your feet
Dance all around to this crazy beat
(Chick-a-bop, chick-a-bop, chick-a-boom)
Hey, let's do the Cherokee Dance
(Chick-a-bop, chick-a-bop, chick-a-boom)
Let's get ready to romance
Take three steps forward and rub her head
Tell her she's nice, don't be afraid
Grab your gal and spin around
Take three steps back and then squad out
As you straighten up on your feet
Dance all around to this crazy beat
Take three steps forward and bow your head
Tell her she's nice, don't be afraid
Grab your gal and spin around
And take three steps back and then squad out
As you straighten up on your feet
Kiss your baby on this last beat
(Chick-a-bop, chick-a-bop, chick-a-boom)
I can almost hear the warm sun shinin' on me,
Sniffin' cocain way down on malibu beach,
Cruisin' in the canyon with my little woman,
Doin' all the talk that I wanna be doin' but,
I fall in love again today, I'm a long way from L.A.
It's been quite a while since I told my baby bye bye,
I hated to leave when I saw she had tears in her eyes,
But a man has gotta do what he's got to do,
When daddy goes to work mom will bridge the blues,
But I'm on the road again today, I'm a long way from L.A.
I've been on the road it seems just like forever,
We finish one gig and then we pack up to another,
I'd give anything to be back home,
But a music man ain't nothin' but a rolling stone,
I'm on the road again today, I'm a long way from L.A.,
I'm a long way from L.A., I'm a long way from L.A.
Gotta get back to my, Gotta get back to my,
Gotta get back to my, I gotta get outta here man,
Man this woman's killin' me, mmm mmm mmm, my my my,
Things go better with Coca Cola,

You, pretty thing
Let me buy you a wedding ring
Let me hear the choir sing
Oh, you pretty thing.
You, pretty thing
Let me walk you down the aisle
I would wear a lover's smile
Oh, you pretty thing.
Let me kiss you again
Let me squeeze and hold you tight
Let me give you all my love
The rest of my life.
You, pretty thing
Let me hold you by my side
And become my blushing bride
Oh, you pretty thing.
You, pretty thing .

Well it's a low down kinda condition
Been running round my brain
Says it may drive me insane
And every organism
That I can hear and see
Seems to have the blues with me
So I went to the doctor
Sat down on her bed
Looked up right at her
This is what she said
"You're in a human condition
That's what's got you down
Human condition
Your face is full of frowns
You've got to stand your ground"
"Well, you're sad, weak and weary"
She went on to say
"Nothing seems to go your way"
"And though you've tried and tried
You can't be satisfied
No-one seems to treat you right"
"But there's one thing for certain
That you ought to know
There's been lots of people
In that scene before"
"You're in a human condition
That's what's got you down
Human condition
Your face is full of frowns
You've got to stand your ground"
Well I stood up and I left her
And slowly walked away
Looking for a brighter day
And as I thought about it
A new thought came to me
Maybe we cannot be free
Well a whole lot of bad things
The world might throw at you
Stand up straight and strong
It's the only thing to do
You're in a human condition
That's what's got you down
Human condition
Your face is full of frowns
You've got to stand your ground
Searchin' searchin' for my baby
Searchin' searchin' for my love
I'm searchin' for the one I used to hold
If I find her, you know, I will
I'll never, never let her go now, baby
No no no no no no no!
I love you, I need you
I want you by my side
For my love, for my sweet love
You know I'll never, never hide now, baby
No no no no no no no!
Never gonna hide now baby
I wonder, I wonder why she had to leave me this way
I'm sorry darlin' that I made you cry
Forgive me love, for the things I've done to you
Come on now, come on home
Give me one more try
Searchin' baby, I'm searchin' for your love
I'm searchin' for the woman I'd love to hold
And if I find her I'll never never let her go now, baby
No no no never never let her go
I can't make it on my own
No no no no no no no!
I need you
I can't make it on my own
I need my baby right now
I need my baby right now
I need my baby right now
Time was when we got along
Time was when we got along
It's too bad that the feeling's gone
Time was when we could agree
Time was when we could agree
That time's gone, now you find fault with me
I've got time, things will workout fine
Trouble will not wreck my life
Trouble will not wreck my life
Someday you'll like what I'm putting down
I like to see you walk
I like to see you walk
I like to see you walk
You my baby
Keep my eyes on you
Well, keep on walking babe
Keep on walking
Well, keep on walking
Oh yes, and walk your walk
I like to see you walk
I like to see you walk
I like to see you walk
You my babe
Got my eyes on you
I love to see you switch
I love to see you switch
I love to see you switch
You my babe
I got my eyes on you
I see you every day
Walking down the street
I see you every day
Walking down the street
You my baby
Keep my eyes on you way
I got my eye on you
Any way you walk
I see you
Every move you make
I got my eye
I got my eye
I got my eye on you
I got my eye on you

Takes alcorub to take these canned heat blues.
Crying, mama, mama, mama, you know, canned heat killing

Canned heat don't kill me, crying, babe, i'll never die.
I woke up, this morning, crying, canned heat 'ourn my
bed.
Run here, somebody, take these canned heat blues.
You know this boogie is for real.
I used to buy my faith in worship,
But then my chance to Heaven slipped.
I used to worry about the future
But then I throw my caution to the wind.
I had no reason to be care free
No no no, until I took a trip to the other side of town
Yeah yeah yeah, you know I heard that boogie rhythm
Hey- I had no choice but to get down down down down.
(CHORUS)
Dance, nothing left for me to do but dance,
Off these bad times I'm going through just dance
Got canned heat in my heals tonight baby
I feel the thunder see the lightning
I know this anger's heaven sent.
So I've got to hang out all my hang-ups
Because of the boogie I feel so hell bent
It's just an instant gut reaction, that I got
I know I never ever felt like this before,
I dont know what to do
But then thats nothing new,
Stuck between hell and high water
I need a cure to make it through.
Hey- dancing nothing left for me to do but dance
Off these bad times I'm going through just dance,
Hey got canned heat in my heals tonight baby
You know know know I'm gonna dance yeah
Off all the nasty things that people say.
Gonna dance, gonna dance my blues away tonight
Dance, come on got canned heat in my heals tonight
Canned heat in my heals tonight.
