Excellent and powerful music, June 4, 1999
This review is from: Best of 2 (Audio CD)
Fans of world music, traditional hymns, minimalism, and linguistics will love this album. The best track is mislabeled however--the song printed as "Vuka Jona Sithandaze" is in fact called "Uphi Umhlobo" and was released as track 3 on the 1st Best-of album. I can only guess it appears here in error. No matter, since you'll want to play this track 400 times.

Ladysmith Black Mambazo is an extremely talented group of vocalists whose intricate, uplifting harmonies seem to be excecuted with great ease. The fluidity and rich depth of each member's voice comlement the overall beauty and peace which each piece conveys. I can't say enough about this CD!

Voices of Gold, November 21, 2002
This review is from: Best of 2 (Audio CD)
I have had the pleasure of both owning 2 of their records and having heard them in concert. The harmony and beauty of the voices is food for the soul. As good as any choir or small group I have ever heard. This album and the Warner Bros Collection are my favorites.

Mambazo and God, November 27, 2006
This review is from: Best of 2 (Audio CD)
I really wish there were a site with English translations for those who do not understand isiZulu. Ladysmith Black Mambazo's music puts your soul very close to God with their hymns and praise songs. A to Z, their music is soothing, reassuring and re-affirming. You'd do well to own this piece of Heaven.
