I just listened to Cesarias rendition of Besame Mucho (available via you tube on a link after the Guardian obituary). It confirmed to me why she is considered Africas most internationally successful artist.
Africa has lost a tremendous talent comparable to
Billie Holliday whose tragic life she shared. RIP Cesaria.
