I have been trying to learn more about the various musicians playing on the album but could not find much.The album itself seems to be a compilation and it is likely that the artists recorded more than what is available there. For the sake of the history of World Music (and m'baqanga in particular), you should listen to french artist Lizzy Mercier Descloux who recorded an album in South Africa in 1984, before Paul Simon's Graceland. One of the songs even became a hit "Où sont passées les gazelles?"Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08204019941840836775noreply@blogger.com
