Bringing It Down: South African Sax Jive (1990)

Twenty years ago the venerable reggae label Trojan Records briefly dipped its toes into classic township music from South Africa, for a few releases. Today's offering is a selection of ten mbaqanga instrumentals produced in the early 1970s by one of South Africa's greatest producers, Hamilton Nzimande.

This is jumpin' jive music guaranteed to brighten your day.
