    When Hugh came to the United States from Apartheid South Africa, brought here by Harry Belafonte and Marian Makeba, he was unprepared for the New York winters. Dizzy Gillispie took him to a New York clothing store and bought him a brand new Cashmere coat. This is his tribute to Dizzy.

    I love this album. It was on Spotify up until very recently and now it has mysteriously disappeared. Thanks for posting!

    This LP was produced by Stewart Levine and features Joe Sample and Stix Hooper from the Crusaders (who Levine was also producing at the time) on piano and drums, resp. (I listed the band from the album jacket in a comment for another clip from the same album).
    I've always thought of it (the LP) as a unique meld of Masekela's afro-jazz and Crusaders-style jazz-funk. The whole LP is Awesome.

    Another legend has gone … I came to know Hugh Masekela through Paul Simon in the early 80’s, but my interest in his music grew much later when I started listening to World music (esp. African music). Yes, his music has a distinct African flavour.
    And here’s a curious and marvelous mix of Masekela’s playing "Night in Tunisia" by Gillespie and a view from a train going through the concrete jungle of Tokyo.

    Yes man, irie tunes the whole album through. I am sorry you had to pay so much for it, as I found it at a thrift store about 15 years ago for $1. It's been in the rotation ever since. Positive vibes!

    That's exactly the adjective Gilles Peterson used: "that is heavy, heavy, heavy!"

    Thank you for this gem @Rufusdos, but why? Why do you think its not available anywhere? I am worried...this is a highly regarded artist and I think his artistry should be paraded widely instead of being hidden. Are we going to wait until he passes like the other greats before we "salute" him? I am going into music publishing tomorrow morning...

    • @Rufusdos
      @Rufusdos  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Ndumiso Mlabateki Sad thought! I really don't know though. Is it condsidered "minority interest"? Is there some difficulty with the rights, so none of these tracks can appear on other people's compilations? Maybe some difficulty connected with the two Crusaders members involved? Your guess is as good as mine.

  • @Rufusdos

    Charlie. the 70s, an amazing decade for music, and so much is owed to the influence of Africa. To Explore Fela Kuti, try YouTubing Fela Kuti "Gentleman" (1973) and Fela Kuti "Expensive shit" (1975) and play it through some speakers!

  • @Rufusdos
    @Rufusdos  14 ปีที่แล้ว

    cheers charlie. sounds like a cool program. Have you also heard Fela Kuti's 70s stuff, like 'Gentleman/Confusion' and 'Expensive shit/water no get enemy'? sometimes hits the highs of this tune.

    I think you're commenting on the wrong video. This is for people who like music and good vibrations.

    What's his name? I know the keyboard player and drummer are Crusaders Joe Sample and Sticks Hooper. Don't know who the guitar player is either.

    The video of Japan is compelling but disparate from Africa, you have committed a disconnect crime for posterity.

    • @Goruthar

      Nice job though!

    • @Rufusdos
      @Rufusdos  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Al Waxman If you're a person who needs the audio and visual channels to agree, I suggest you Google the term "literal video". Juxtaposition is not a crime!

    • @Goruthar
      @Goruthar 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I was using the term 'crime' very loosely. The video does suit the music.
