Info zu Masekela (Remastered)

"Masekela" is the eleventh studio album by South African jazz trumpeter Hugh Masekela released via Uni Records label in 1969.

It was Hugh Masekela who pretty much kicked off the interest in South African Jazz. There were hints of it here and there. Labeled Township Jive in the 1950s, it made its presence known by way of clandestine recordings, made secretly during the Apartheid era and smuggled up to the UK where they got limited distribution, but enough to make an awareness that a new breath of fresh air was coming.

Hugh Masekela was a world-renowned flugelhornist, trumpeter, bandleader, composer, singer and defiant political voice who remained deeply connected at home, while his international career sparkled. He was born in the town of Witbank, South Africa in 1939. At the age of 14, the deeply respected advocator of equal rights in South Africa, Father Trevor Huddleston, provided Masekela with a trumpet and, soon after, the Huddleston Jazz Band was formed. Masekela began to hone his, now signature, Afro-Jazz sound in the late 1950s during a period of intense creative collaboration, most notably performing in the 1959 musical King Kong, written by Todd Matshikiza, and, soon thereafter, as a member of the now legendary South African group, the Jazz Epistles (featuring the classic line up of Kippie Moeketsi, Abdullah Ibrahim and Jonas Gwangwa).
