Bonnie Boudreau demo 1982

Amogela ~ Welcome

This is a song welcoming everyone to the moment.  It is a jam to get the musical juices going.  It is a thank you to South Africa for the four months I got to live there.  It is a thank you to the Regaugele Choir that welcomed me to sing with them each afternoon, which was my favorite part of each day.
