On this February night, Jim re-recorded portions of four songs that he had earlier cut in the Afrikaans language, thus adding American lyrics. These included "The Old Kalahari", (originally "Die Ou Kalahari"); "I'm Crying Again", ("Ek Verlang Na Jou"), "You Are My Love" ("Jy Is My Liefling"), and "Tahiti".
