Here is Artie Davis and Nicky Parker's Band with the "Jubilee Vastrap".  This kind of minstrel music is common amongst the Cape "Coloured" community in South Africa and examples of it may be found when thousands of "Kaapse Klopse" swarm thought Cape Town during the annual "Second New Year" celebrations. This piece shows the influences of boeremusiek and kwela, both of which originated in South Africa.
