1	Hope (1993) more music like this by Hugh Masekela Now happily resettled in South Africa, Masekela assembled a seven-piece group there and recorded an informal guided tour of his life and repertoire live in Washington D.C.'s Blues Alley. The songs stretch over a period of nearly five decades and several countries and composers - from an incantory Alexandria township tune, "Languta," which he ... see all copies from $6.24! new only from $14.78!
2	Time (2002) more music like this by Hugh Masekela Since his return to South Africa in 1990, Hugh Masekela has become a national musical icon. And his music has taken on more of the flavor of his homeland, too, all of which is quite in evidence on Time. Of course, this being Masekela, he's not going to be penned into one style, as he shows on "Conchita," his bubbling celebration of Latin music, ... see all copies from $4.48! new only from $5.11!
3	Grazing in the Grass: The Best of Hugh Masekela (2001) more music like this by Hugh Masekela This release is superb, but also a little confusing -- it is, as its packaging suggests, a magnificent retrospective of a global jazz legend, despite the fact that it must, of necessity, leave some holes in a 14-song selection intended to sum up a 40-year career. What isn't clear until one opens it, however, is that little of what's here -- none ... see all copies from $5.57! new only from $5.57!
4	Revival (2005) more music like this by Hugh Masekela Trumpeter /composer Hugh Masekela's first outing in three years finds him in the company of some of South Africa's hottest young Kwaito producers and musicians. Masekela has pursued his own meld of South African township music and folk styles, pop, jazz, R&B topical songs, and blues. He has added to that mix the rhythmic invention of urban soul ... see all copies from $3.62! new only from $16.89!
5	Still Grazing (2004) more music like this by Hugh Masekela Released to coincide with Hugh Masekela's autobiography of the same name, Still Grazing picks up the Masekela story from Verve's summary of the best of the MGM albums, The Lasting Impression of Ooga-Booga, and runs through the Uni and Blue Thumb material. The 1966 tracks are from The Emancipation of Hugh Masekela, where the trumpeter mixes his ... see all copies from $7.56! new only from $10.29!
6	20th Century Masters: Millennium Collection (2006) more music like this by Hugh Masekela Hugh Masekela recorded for a series of American labels between the mid-'60s and mid-'70s: Mercury; MGM; Decca's Uni subsidiary; and his own Chisa label, distributed first by Motown and then by Blue Thumb. All of those labels have since been incorporated within the major label Universal, and Universal's reissue arm, Hip-O, is responsible for this ... see all copies from $4.92! new only from $4.92!
7	Live at the Market Theatre (2007) more music like this by Hugh Masekela This two-and-a-half-hour concert recording serves both to sum up the career of its performer, now that he is north of 65 years old, and also to demonstrate that he is still working at his peak. Hugh Masekela's voice is more gravelly than in the past, but his flugelhorn playing is as good as ever, and his abilities as a bandleader are apparent. ... see all copies from $17.47! new only from $17.47!
8	Beatin' Aroun De Bush (1992) more music like this by Hugh Masekela With a mix of smooth contemporary jazz, Afro-beat and world music, Beatin' Aroun De Bush is a highly accessible presentation of Hugh Masekela's flugelhorn expertise, as well as a visit to his South African homeland. This album was completed as his native country was voting to abolish apartheid, and the music contained herein is at times mellow and ... see all copies from $1.99!
9	Best of Easy Listening [Universal] (1997) more music like this by Various Artists The Best of Easy Listening collects several of the biggest easy-listening and soft-rock hits from the MCA vaults, including Roger Williams' "Born Free," Joe Harnell's "Fly Me to the Moon-Bossa Nova," Ferrante & Teicher's "I've Told Every Little Star," Hugh Masekela's "Grazing in the Grass," Billy Vaughn's "A Swingin' Safari," Henry Mancini's "The ... see all copies from $6.28! new only from $6.28!

11 view cover	Rock Instrumental Classics, Vol. 4: Soul (1994) more music like this by Various Artists While the material on volume four of Rhino's rock instrumentals set chronologically preceded what was on the third volume, no soul, R&B, or even soul-jazz and funk fan should mind these 18 genuine classics, including two superb numbers from Booker T. and the MGs, seminal tracks by the Mar-Keys, Bar-Kays, and Cannonball Adderley, and great Latin ... see all copies from $11.86! new only from $11.86!

14 view cover	The Lasting Impression of Ooga Booga (1965) more music like this by Hugh Masekela In patching together a program of Hugh Masekela's MGM recordings onto a single overstuffed CD, Verve took the original The Americanization of Ooga Booga album, leapfrogged over its successor, Next Album, and coupled it with the third MGM LP, The Lasting Impressions of Hugh Masekela. That made good sense since the two albums originate from the same ... see all copies from $10.90! new only from $13.71!
15 view cover	Billboard Top Contemporary Jazz: Pop (1999) more music like this by Various Artists The Pop installment in Rhino's Billboard Top Contemporary Jazz series concentrates on jazzy pop-crossover hits and tracks popular on smooth jazz radio. Complaints from jazz purists regarding simplicity aside, the main problem with the compilation is that it covers too large a span of time -- the first six tracks date from the '60s and '70s, while ... see all copies from $5.64! new only from $6.16!
16 view cover	Classic R&B Oldies from the 60's, Vol. 1 (1994) more music like this by Various Artists The ten-track Classic R&B Oldies from the 60's Volume 1 is an entertaining retrospective of the music's golden era, compiling a number of must-have hits including Fontella Bass' "Rescue Me," the Four Tops' "Reach Out, I'll Be There," the Impressions' "It's All Right" and Bobby Bland's "I Pity the Fool."

18 view cover	Grrr (1966) more music like this by Hugh Masekela Masekela as a young trumpeter from the mid-'60s. Rare, but clearly his best format and playing. Michael G. Nastos, All Music Guide see all copies from $7.83! new only from $10.06!
19 view cover	Hugh Masekela & Union of South Africa (1994) more music like this by Hugh Masekela Hugh Masekela & the Union of South Africa is an inspired mix of soul, highlife, and even New Orleans jazz. This works excellently on the old-fashioned "Goin' Back to New Orleans" and the fast-moving "Ade" and "Dyambo" where horn lines, call-and-response singing, and funky guitars, together with African rhythms, create furious dance music. But some ... see all copies from $20.00! new only from $49.80!
20 view cover	Latin Oldies, Vol. 4 (2000) more music like this by Various Artists Thump's Latin Oldies, Vol. 4 collects classics from Latino artists like Tierra, the Village Callers, and Randy Garibay.

21 view cover	Putumayo Presents: South African Legends (2000) more music like this by Various Artists A surprisingly comprehensive collection, this album from Putumayo really does cover nearly every South African musical legend that's made a name for themselves (with the only really obvious exceptions being Dorothy Masuka and Dave Matthews, though the latter's music isn't as rooted in African tradition in the first place). The album opens with ... see all copies from $11.23! new only from $13.37!
22 view cover	Herb Alpert/Hugh Masekela (1978) more music like this by Herb Alpert & Hugh Masekela A mustachioed Herb Alpert breaks out of his '70s blue funk to fuse himself with fellow horn player Hugh Masekela and producer/pianist Caiphus Semenya in a magnificent LP (later issued on CD) of South African/American pop/jazz. From the joyous opening strains of the South African oldie "Skokiaan," continuing with the haunting groove of "Moonza," ... see all copies from $10.53!
23 view cover	Smooth Grooves: Cruisin' Classics (2002) more music like this by Various Artists As the title says, this volume of Smooth Grooves is devoted to songs that sound good while slowly cruising in a car. This means it's a little bit livelier in sections than certain editions of Smooth Grooves --- you have Bobby Womack's funky "Woman's Gotta Have It," Malo's Latin grooves on "Suavecito," the bubbling "Lovely Day" by Bill Withers -- ... see all copies from $10.71! new only from $10.71!
