CD ReviewsA comprehensive overview Peter Durward Harris | Leicester England | 07/10/2002 (5 out of 5 stars) "My knowledge of this group is limited, but there is a lot of great music here, if you're looking to start a collection of African music, or if (like me) you're simply looking for something different from the stuff you normally expect to hear in Europe and America.You get plenty of straight African music (including a lot of chanting), but you also get some more familiar songs given the LBM treatment, often with interesting guests (see Amazon's own summary of this collection). CD2 leads off with a track from Graceland.Of course, a lot of today's radio music has it's roots in Africa, and just to remind you, the second track on CD2 is Mbube, a song which, after adaptation, became variously known as Wimomeh or The lion sleeps tonight. Now you can hear it without westernisation." Cothoza Mfana (Tip Toe Guys) Peter Durward Harris | 08/13/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "This 34-track double album from Ladysmith Black Mambazo features some of their finest ever songs, starting off with "Halala South Africa (Congratulations South Africa), and ending on CD 2 with "Once In a blue moon" (Feat. Lighthouse Family) Ladysmith Black Mambazo collaborated with Des'ree on "Ain't no sunshine" and that song is on this album (CD2). INKANYEZI NEZAZI (Star and the Wise Man) was used on the Heinz Ads and was famous in Britain. This album is a excellent one for any fan of the group."
