[BITList] Obit - Miriam Makeba

[Bill and Diana]

Her obit is already in Wikipedia.

Rather than the protest songs for apartheid, I prefer to remember her as 
the "Click Lady", or, as Wikipedia says:

'She released many of her most famous hits there including Pata Pata, 
The Click Song (Qongqothwane in Xhosa), and Malaika. In 1966, Makeba 
received the Grammy Award for Best Folk Recording together with Harry 
Belafonte for An Evening With Belafonte/Makeba'

A sad passing.
