Soundtrack to the documentary about music in South Africa’s anti-apartheid movement. Covers a wide variety of artists & eras. There are some amazing performances and it’s a very powerful & inspiring collection (although the tracks are too short – I wanted more). All 29 tracks are worth a play, but check out the following especially: 2. Soulful male vox, really wonderful. 3. Big chorus, funky, uptempo. 5. Old time jazz orchestra & down-tempo chorus. 7. Mid-tempo, almost Caribean sway of percussion/chorus. 8. Relaxed a capella male chorus with clicks. 9. Down tempo jazz picks up a groove. A strong sound. 14. Sweet male vox, acoustic guitar. Simple & nice. 16. Almost Celtic-instrumental w/strings/perc. Mid-tempo. 18. Great chorus, swaying, a very cool sound. 19. Big, rousing jazz/funk anthem to Nelson Mandela. 24. Great male voice, guitar. Warm and lazy. 28. Big gospel chorus 29. Protest meeting into a cool jazz swing. 4/2003 | ||
