"Mirip Boneka"
Band: Zaenal Combo
Conductor: Zaenal Arifin

The record from approx 1969, not released by Remaco, as usual, but by JBL.
The song "Dalam Kerinduan" is from a damaged section of this record. A deplorable fact because it is nice "Melayu" styled song by Zakaria who often composed this genre.
Typical for the Melayu style are the stretched vowels in glissando ondulating between a high and a low tone.

Cincin Pengikat - ( Betty & Santosa )

Dalam Kerinduan - ( Zakaria )                          
Cuma Ingin Tahu - ( Zakaria )                          
Kekasih Di Malaya - ( A. Riyanto )

" Sendja Di Kaimana"
Band: Zaenal Combo
Conductor: Zaenal Arifin.

Year: about 1965.

The cover is missing. The previous owner has written " 33 " on the label,
maybe as warning not to mix up wit the 78 rpm records in his collection.
This is really old stuff, populair musc, the calm genre.
The record is in bad shape, very scratched and worn out, so the only way out was to use a
de-clicking and de-scratching software named "De-Popper"

Retno's voice reminds me of hearing Sandra Sanger, In those days the girl singers had very dignified and solemn way of pronouncing the words in their songs as you can hear.

" Selamat Berpisah " - Farewell - Known also as "Berpisah Di Teras St. Carolus" sung by Lilis Surjani..
" Senja Di Kaimana " - Sunset at Kaimana -
" Kasih Ibu " - A mother's love -
" Tiada Seindah Hari Ini " - There is no day as perfect as today - The nicest song from this playlist,   very typical for that time.
" Hadiah Hari Ulang Tahun " - A birthday gift -
" Ibunda Sayang " - My sweet mother -
" Semalam Di Cianjur " - A night in Cianjur -
" Tamasya Ke Kota Bogor " - A daytrip to Bogor"



Selamat Berpisah - ( Wedhasmara )             Retno        
Senja Di Kaimana - ( Surni Warkiman )             Alfian        
Kasih Ibu - ( Untung Sn. )                  S. Warno        
Tiada Seindah Hari Ini - ( I. Wurjatmodjo )         Retno
