Synopsis

Product Description
Legendary world music artist, "The Lion of Zimbabwe". This album contains incredibly rare, as well as previously unreleased hit material on CD, never before heard outside of Zimbabwe. Originator of the Chimurenga (Music of Struggle) style of music from Zimbabwe, he was the first in the country to compose original songs. Outspoken in political matters, Thomas Mapfumo went into exile and has been living and performing in the USA for more than 10 years.
