Hi Moos, I loved the Chimurenga from Thomas Mapfumo & the Blacks. It& been a while since I played some of his LP&.lt;br,

Backed by his band, Blacks Unlimited, Thomas Mapfumo has been at the cutting edge of the political struggle in his native Zimbabwe for over 20 years, even as he's become a major figure on the world music scene. Born in 1945 in the small town of Marondera, in the country that was then the British co. .And the music, too, got a name - Chimurenga ("Struggle"). The lyrics were direct and political on Mapfumo's first album, Ho Koyo, criticizing the government, and that was enough to get Mapfumo jailed for three months at a time when the nation was striving for independence and black guerilla groups operated and met in the bush - with Mapfumo's music as their soundtrack.

On behalf of Thomas Mapfumo and the Blacks Unlimited, &Chimurenga Music Company I wish to officially announce that Dr Thomas Tafirenyika Mukanya Mapfumo will be performing in Zimbabwe on the 28th of April 2018 in Harare. We are excited that Mukanya will be performing in Zimbabwe after more than a decade's absence. On his behalf and CMC I will be giving you updates with regards to Mukanya's Welcome Back Bira. For and on behalf of Thomas Mapfumo. Blessing Vava Publicist.

And Mapfumo's falsetto singing in the chorus of "Nherera" is simply heavenly, worth the entire album by itself. Besides the band as a whole, guitarist Joshua Dube stands out as a star of this recording. He truly captures the spirit of both Jonah Sithole and Eprhaim Karimaura, who both buoyed the Blacks Unlimited over long periods of time. Dube's sparkling yet mellow tone and instinctive sense of the appropriate thing to play set him apart and elevate the music to its status as one in a long line of classic Mapfumo releases.
