  • Description

    Available on vinyl again, 'The Indestructible Beat Of Soweto' collects some of the greatest mbaqanga tracks recorded during 1981-1984.

    Full-throated singing, often harmonized, rode jumpy rhythms and countermelodies with joyous results; no wonder singer/songwriter extraordinaire Paul Simon used township musicians to recreate their sound on his acclaimed Graceland album.

    "One of the 100 greatest albums of all time." - Rolling Stone
