@skatlammetjie indeed an outstandig movie. But today's pepole can sadly not see the beauty in it. The earth has gone much smaller since then.

@Dewalq that's the whole point of the song: it's sung by gangs with pick-axes and suchlike. The regular rhythm helped the men to keep in time with each other. It's since been adopted by the national rugby team, since Rugby World Cup 1995. ; -)

@manolard it was good, wasn't it? Not slick, not sophisticated, just a nice, uncomplicated film

I love this song, and the thing that makes it great is the harmony of the voices, it gives it a feel of a song that is being sung in a by a workforce or something. That is the thing that most artist who record this forget and then they add other stuff that detracts from the impact of the song

@draceena I strongly believe you made a huge mistake by removing the click! the clicks are all the vinyl's beauty and authenticity . despite this it's a beautiful record with strong emotions

I am so sorry that no one has released the film "Dingaka" on DVD. I have the soundtrack on vinyl and that version, in the context of the story of the film, will bring tears to your eyes.

at 1 minute 10 seconds i thought this guy had RUG RATS playing on TV in the background when he recorded this track.... but now i realise its part of the music. that's sad... right there it ruins the experience for me totally. and just as u begin to hear the women singing their parts it guts to that bongo/rug rats shit and .... yes ruins it for ME.

I saw the IPI TOMBI Show on Stage in London LIVE in 1975 and it still remains my favourite Musical EVER.This Peter Gabriel effort is a 'modern' take which is good,BUT not as good as the original by Gail Lakier & Bertha Egnos who wrote it.
