Oh, I wish I had asked John in Kansas for his PDF files. There were some wonderful books produced in paperback in the 1950s and 1960s, but now they're falling apart. It happens often that the book just destroys itself when I put it in the scanner. Here's another Marais and Miranda songbook.

Many of these songs are translations and adaptations of traditional songs from South Africa, from Afrikaans, English, and indigenous languages. As far as I know, only one of these songs was a hit - "Sugarbush" was recorded by Doris Day.
