HERE is the real soundtrack to cliche TV Africa: Daktari was classic late 60s Africa TV kitsch, some of it shot in Africa, and, according to the end credits, in "Africa, USA": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INFmPsTtYH8 Shelly Manne, THE drummer of 50s/60s West coast Jazz (and proprietor of his own L.A. bar, "Shelly's ManneHole"), recorded a fine soundtrack for it, and this Exotica Jazz formed an early influence in my young impressionable mind in Hamburg, Germany. I always wondered: WHAT instrument made that "Weeeeiiiinng-weee-ying" sound for the lion Clarence's cross-eyed vision optical effect?
