The cassette, probably from 1973 or 1974 is recorded from 2 previously relased LP albums, I presume.
LP 1, songs 1 to 10 on this playlist:
NANIN SUDIAR, MANSYUR S.
Band:Ilin's group
"Sunda Melayu"
Its called "Sundamelayu" but its not a mixture of these 2 styles, its different.
""Es Lilin" ( Ice Lolly. the cry of an ice vendor ) has a typical Sundanese sound it is a well known song to be found in many versions.
"Minta Kawin" is kind of a wordplay. First she sings: "Minta Kain" ( I want a piece of cloth )
later followed by "Minta Kawin" ( I want to marry ) sounds roughly the same, in the song the melody originates from the song "Sorban Palid"
"Pisang Goreng" = fried bananas, a delight
Most other songtitles are in Sundanese, which is rather unknown to me. "Ucing Ucingan is about a cat? "Batik Ti Tasik" = Batik
( printed cloth ) from Tasikmalaya ?

LP 2, SONGS 11 TILL 20 ON THIS PLAYLIST
WANADE & SUP Y.
MUSTAFA W. & FIFI K.
"Si Lengser Midang"
Band: Yukawi
Conductor: Mustafa Wirijat.
The name Mustafa Wirijat I had knowledge of before, he was also a composer.
"Tandur Jajar" is a nice song, nice voice of FiFi K., never heard of before, maybe a local star, in this period regional productions became more important, not all singers went to Jakarta to gain nation-wide fame. but just stayed in their own region.
All titles are in Sundanese. "Ngibing" I think, is a word for someone who is a long time guest with someone, without paying anything.
