Khayelihle Khaya Lami ~ Ladysmith Black Mambazo   Album Notes and Credits Notes & Personnel Info Soaring with with grace and beauty, the a cappella harmonies of South African supergroup Ladysmith Black Mambazo were selected from over 40 albums for this excellent collection of spiritual songs. As the most famous ambassadors of Zulu iscathamiya, a musical style characterized by high-voiced lead singing layered against four-part harmonies, Ladysmith Black Mambazo released the first African album to achieve gold status (sales of 25,000) with 1973's Amabutho. Since then, they have continued their popularity, selling as much or more worldwide. The Best Of, Vol. 2, sung entirely in Zulu, illustrates the group's ability to reach beyond language and cultural barriers, capturing the pure spirit of music. ~ Rosalind Cummings-Yeates   Compilation Appearances Indestructible Beat Of Soweto Lullaby Collection Child's Celebration Of The Wor African Lullaby Brown Girl In The Ring-World M When Love Speaks African Breakbeats Vol. 2 Encore Smooth Africa Ii Exploring The Soul Rough Guide To South Africa Gospel Great Supa Exotic Voices From Africa All Star Gospel Hits Vol. 3: hymns Mflp's 20th Anniversary Collection Mflp's 20th Anniversary Lullaby Collection / Africanism Africa Deluxe:african Chilled Beats Afrique Rough Guide To African Music For Children / V Rasa: Mello Iii Tales Of South African Gospel Awake Rough Guide To South Africa (second E Golden Afrique Vol 3 Graceland Tales Of South Africa (afropop) Animal Playground Sound Of The World African Dreamland Rarities B Sides And Other Stuff Volu Jazz And The World Music Sampler Celebration Of Stars:children's Music   Associated Artists and Works Ears, Rabbit Glover, Danny Glover, Danny Rabbit Ears   Technical Info Release Date : 10/20/1998 Original Release Date : 1998 Catalog ID : 66012 Label : Shanachie Records Number of Discs : 1 Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Stereo SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00016351661227   Professional Reviews Dirty Linen (6-7/99, p.85) - "...featuring more of the group's distinctive mbube harmony with all songs on this disc performed a capella.
