Putumayo Presents: South African Legends

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 ...

One World

One World (1996) more music like this

by Various Artists

One World is a charity album for UNICEF and it appropriately features an eclectic mix of artists from all different genres. Rockers like Toni Childs and Peter Gabriel rub shoulders with the Spanish music of Gypsy Kings, the worldbeat of Johnny Clegg and the reggae of Bob Marley. Naturally, such a mixture doesn't result in a coherent album, but it ...

Planet Africa

Planet Africa (1991) more music like this

by Various Artists

It's impossible to adequately present every African music style in an 11-song anthology, but this sampler does a decent job of spotlighting popular attractions and diverse genres. There are superstars Salif Keita, Youssou N'Dour, and Alpha Blondy, plus crossover group Juluka, the internationally prominent Toure Kunda, and longtime South African ...

Scatterlings

Scatterlings (1982) more music like this

by Juluka

A supergroup that defied racial barriers in their South African homeland, Juluka's album Scatterlings was the first introduction to the band for many Americans. Led by lead singer Johnny Clegg, Scatterlings featured Juluka's blend of African and Western rhythms, melodies, and instrumentation. Clegg delivered his self-penned lyrics in a warm voice ...

Putumayo Presents the Best of World, Vol. 4: African

Putumayo Presents the Best of World, Vol. 4: African (1993) more music like this

by Various Artists

Despite an exaggerated title, Rhino has compiled an excellent 14-cut anthology offering a fine helping of contemporary African music from the mid-'80s to the early '90s. They have also avoided too many names, with the exception of Johnny Clegg & Juluka, Toure Kunda, Mory Kante and Thomas Mapfumo. The other ten cuts include entertaining Nigerian ...

Putumayo Presents: Africa

Putumayo Presents: Africa (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

If you're trying to be comprehensive, putting together a collection of modern African music could be overwhelming. Africa, after all, is a huge continent, and in the 1990s, it offered an incredibly wide variety of music that ranged from exuberant zouk and soukous to moody, jazz-influenced Ethiopian pop and the Middle Eastern-influenced sounds ...

African Litany

African Litany (1982) more music like this

by Juluka

Juluka's second release with Johnny Clegg, the first album by an integrated rock band in South Africa, went gold in three months. This first single, "Impi," was based on a Zulu war chant and was considered a call to revolution by people in the know. J. Poet, All Music Guide

Ubuhle Bemvelo

Ubuhle Bemvelo (1982) more music like this

by Juluka

This, Juluka's third recording, is a collection of original Zulu songs. For fans of Juluka's Zulu songs, this is a real treat. For those who dislike songs not sung in English and merely tolerated the Zulu songs on other Juluka or Savuka recordings, your money is best spent elsewhere. This record scores high over much of the group's other work due ...

Universal Men

Universal Men (1979) more music like this

by Juluka

Universal Men, Juluka's 1979 debut album (belatedly released in the U.S. in 1992), was a remarkable document for its time. Johnny Clegg and Sipho Mchunu achieved a canny mixture of Western folk-rock and Zulu chant, creating a pop hybrid like nothing that had been heard before, even if the flute and sax solos of Robbie Jansen, playing against the ...

Best of World Music: African

Best of World Music: African (1993) more music like this

by Various Artists

The ethnic-flavored Putumayo clothing chain had long favored in-store soundtracks of light-textured world music. It was natural that CEO Dan Storper should decide to branch out into the music business, and the label is now respected for its genre compilations and single-artist releases and envied for its impressive sales volume. However, in the ...

Stand Your Ground more music like this

by Juluka

Stand Your Ground was the follow-up to South African pop band Juluka's first internationally distributed album, Scatterlings. It features the same original Afro-pop sound heard on the previous record, with lead singers Jimmy Clegg and Sipbo Mchunu singing in both English and Zulu over keyboard based '80s pop. For all its novelty, the Juluka sound ...
