J-card of cassette has credits and notes about Waila. Here's some if it:

Waila is the social dance music of the Tohono O'odham
"Desert People" of the Sonoran desert. The world
waila was derived from the Spanish word for dance
baile. Also known as "Chicken Scratch" waila music
evolved from the earlier acoustic fiddle bands which
adapted European and Mexican tunes heard in Northern
Sonora. The music is most frequently heard on and near
the Tohono O'odham, Gila River and Pima Salt River
reservation of central and southern Arizona.
