Of Course, Not a Hornpipe....
...but a South African "Kwela" tune. Confusion may have entered the picture when John Skelton recorded it with the House Band. Nice tune though, and well worth posting here. Thanks!

Very true
Yes, I suspected it wasn't a traditional tune, but works as a great hornpipe for English ceilidhs, especially.
