Whether they are singing hymns or secular songs, Ladysmith Black Mambazo always raise their voices in glorious harmony. They are the unmatched masters of the South African a cappella form known as isicathamiya or mbube, and this CD demonstrates their vocal prowess. The Zulu songs are ornamented by trills, yips, humming, and tra-la-las and punctuated by the rhythmic clicks that are particular to the language. The English-language songs instruct and advise on the fine moral points of human relationships. While the mbube song form lends a certain similarity to the pieces, this group is so good that the music never seems redundant, and the generous selection of 16 songs seems to go by too quickly. --Jeff Grubb

Customer Reviews of The Best of Ladysmith Black Mambazo
The Best of Ladysmith Black Mambazo This CD brings an uplifting spirit to the listener. My husband enjoys the crisp sound of voices in unison and harmony. We found this music quite enjoyable. You can feel the spirituality of the musicians as they bring you each note.
What Mambazo means
Mambazo means "Ox" in Zulu--NOT axe. This explains one of the first reviewers who mistakenly wondered why the group would have such a violent tone to their group name.

not as good as expected
This wasn't as good as I had hoped. Not enough upbeat selections.
