In the game, the older player hides their face, pops back into the baby's view, and says Peekaboo! sometimes followed by I see you!

Peekaboo is thought by developmental psychologists to demonstrate an infant's inability to understand object permanence..

South African Classic Electro Disco Funky Beat Hit Single
-

"Miriam Makeba (4 March 1932 - 10 November 2008), nicknamed Mama Africa, was a Grammy Award winning South African singer and civil rights activist.
In the 1960s she was the first artist from Africa to popularize African music in the U.S. and around the world. She is best known for the song "Pata Pata", first recorded in 1957 and released in the U.S. in 1967. She recorded and toured with many popular artists, such as Harry Belafonte, Paul Simon, and her former husband Hugh Masekela.
She actively campaigned against the South African system of apartheid. As a result, the South African government revoked her citizenship and right of return. After the end of apartheid she returned home. She died on 10 November 2008 after performing in a concert organized to support writer Roberto Saviano in his stand against the Camorra, a mafia-like organisation local to the Region of Campania.
Pata Pata" is a song by South African singer Miriam Makeba. The song was written by fellow southern African artist Dorothy Masuka and first released by Makeba in 1957 when she still lived in South Africa.[1][2] The song was released in the United States in 1967 for her studio album of the same name.[2] It was successful on the Billboard Hot 100, and peaked at #12.[3]
The song is considered by many to be Makeba's signature hit and the song has since been covered by many artists.
Originally written and sung in the Xhosa language, the song's title means "touch touch" in English."

DANNY BOY & THE SERIOUS PARTY GODS "Castro Boy" (12'' Maxi) Hi-NRG Disco 80's "Out-Of-Print" VERY RARE!

Hi-NRG Disco 80's
-
"This early 80's gem is both a slam and a homage to the San Francisco gay scene.
Definitely a play on Frank and Moon Unit Zappa's "Valley Girl," which was very popular at the time. It's amazing how many of the San Francisco (Castro) bars given a mention in this song still exist.
 It's also amazing how many of the drugs mentioned in this song go by different names now-a-days.
According to legendary music producer John Hedges, only x1000 12 Inch records were pressed, and a few hundred of those came up defective. 

A VERY VERY RARE 12 Inch RECORD!"
