    was taken by negative people who only could see their own point of view.

    In case anyone else is looking for more information about the male vocal choir featured here, they're called "Ladysmith Black Mambazo" from South Africa, founded by Joseph Shabalala in 1960. As he is still leading the choir in this video, he has since passed away in 2020 at age 79. The only founding member still left in the group is Albert Mazibuko, the second man from the left. He was 64 at the time this video was shot in 2012.

    • @BluePiano7
      @BluePiano7 7 лет назад +13

      So many of his songs have great basslines (Call Me Al, Late in the Evening etc.) When people say that Paul Simon is a great song writer they're probably mostly thinking about his lyrics, but he's a very underrated composer in terms of his music. No one else has incorporated so many different genres and musical styles (African, Brazilian, Latin, Cajun, reggae, jazz, gospel etc.) while always remaining true to themselves.

    • @jakejohansen1889
      @jakejohansen1889 6 лет назад +3

      Right on bluepiano... Paul Simon is a master composer of music in many styles while maintaining originality. Jerry Garcia is another master of many genres while not sounding derivative of everything else. Garcia played folk, bluegrass, blues, rock, reggae, funk, fusion, and more while maintaining his ethos of always improvising musically & never playing a song the same way. Jerry Garcia & Paul Simon are my two favorite artists to come out of the 60's. Their musical legacies will still be appreciated many generations from now.
