I am not sure where I found this song from Dixie Kwankwa, but I suspect it's most probably on Excavated Shellac or on Electric Jive.  On the rebound I have been unable to find any reference on the web of her singing "Easter Monday", but Electric Jive has a little more information on her as well as one of her albums for download.  Dixie won the Miss South Africa title in 1957 and got her first job as a singer in 1958.  In 1961 she had an international hit with "My Nyasaland Love".
