I became familiar with this tune the year it came out. I was in Boston in the mid-90s when he and "Ms Makeba" as he called her performed at Symphony. I planned it well and had a large boquet of flowers to present to her after her performance. I was reward with a light kiss on the cheek. I was the envy of the entire hall. On a side note that same summer I was fortunate to catch Nina Simone at the same place. Was kind of disappointed though. Not with music but she left my boquet sitting

He knew better than to release a potentially politically explosive song to the U.S. audience in those days. Besides, he had, by then, married Cab Calloway's daughter, his son, Sal's mother. By then he had learned the value of going commercial. When he got back to South Africa he combined social commentary and commercial sense to galvinize and entertain.

I agree it's by far the best rendition and I think it transcends the original. I would put this as an essential Masekela piece to hear along with African Secret Society in terms of how well he plays forcefully, and sweetly.

Very rare Hugh Masakela offering. From the 1976A.D. "COLONIAL MAN". like so many concerns back then, celebrating and addressing the issues of America's bicentennial. Wouldn't it be an absolute hoot if Hugh did a rendtion of The Isley's "FIGHT THE POWERS", or Melanie Safka's 'LOOK WHAT THEY'VE DONE TO MY SONG"?
Also the best rendition of of the Isley Brothers classic to date! Thank you, thank you, and THANK YOU AGAIN!!!
