BOJOURA

Bojoura, of Bulgarian descent, was the most popular Dutch singer for a long period of time.  She was born in 1947 in The Hague as Raina Cleuver van Melzen and discovered by George Kooymans (Golden Earring) in 1967. She recorded a lot of folk songs, although she also did some songs penned by Kooymans.  She was frequently accompanied by the Thijs van Leer Trio (1967-1969).
