Product Description

From Amazon.com

The Zulu a cappella ensemble Ladysmith Black Mambazo, named for their hometown and for the Zulu word for "axe," was "discovered" by Paul Simon, who recorded them on his landmark 1986 album Graceland. By 1990 Mambazo had recorded three more albums for Warner Bros.--the Grammy-nominated Shaka Zulu, Journey of Dreams, and Two Worlds, One Heart--and solidified their reputation as one of the endearing and enduring world-music groups. This 17-track collection compiles their greatest hits from the label. With the bulk of the music composed by leader-composer Joseph Shabala, this CD captures the ensemble's ebullient mix of African American gospel harmonies, Kwa Zulu/English lyrics, and percussive sounds. From the choral-beat box splendor of "Homeless" and "Amazing Grace" with Paul Simon to the Caribbean-tinged "Township Jive" and the gospel-like "Leaning on the Everlasting Arm" with the Winans, Ladysmith Black Mambazo give us a stirring soundtrack for the new South Africa. --Eugene Holley Jr.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ladysmith Black Mambazo の編集盤, 2005/1/21
By 大五郎 - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
 レディスミス・ブラック・マンバーゾは、ポール・サイモンのグラミー賞アルバム"Graceland"(1986) のバックを務め、一躍有名になったヴォーカル・ユニットです。このアルバムは"Graceland"から一曲、のこりはワーナー・ブラザーズから発表されたアメリカ・デビューアルバム"Shaka Zulu"(1987)から6曲、2枚目の "Journey Of Dreams" (1988)から5曲、3枚目の"Two Worlds One Heart"(1990) から5曲の抜粋、という構成になってます。
 "Shaka Zulu"は"Graceland"の直後に発表されたため注目を集めたためか中古盤も多く、比較的容易に入手できますが、その他はなかなか見かけることがなく、このベスト盤はワーナー時代の活動をざっと俯瞰するのには便利な一枚です。
 なお初めの2枚のアルバムは"Graceland"の"Homeless"の冒頭のような感じ、つまり全てヴォーカルのみのアンサンブルで、エスニックなハーモニーかつリズムが自由奔放ながら、泥臭さを感じさせない非常に洗練されたスタイルです。ただ・・・どこで次の曲になったのか、よく分かりません(笑)。ちなみに3枚目のアルバムに収録されていたいくつかの曲はロック・バンドをバックに録音されており、"Graceland"のようで、非常に分かりやすくなっています。しかし、正直言って、単調な曲調・安易なアレンジで、全然面白くない!この3枚目からの曲を聴いて、ポール・サイモンがレディスミス・ブラック・マンバーゾをいかに上手く取り込んで、あのような素晴らしいアルバムを作ったか、ということを改めて認識させられました。
 なお、"Journey Of Dreams" を持ってないので分かりませんが、ここに収録されている"Amazing Grace"にはポール・サイモンが参加。これは"avaiable only on the CD version of this album" と記載されています。このアルバムの為にリミックスされたのかな?
