Soweto Is Where It's At, di Dollar Brand aka Abdullah Ibrahim, dal'album African Herbs

That presentation of Jabula is clearly linked in my memory to the ? 1976 version (Edit: Remembering 1968 Jabulani) only by the rhythm and sequence of the central chord progression.
Everything else, the centrality of the percussion, the expanse of "white space", the frugality of trumpet, and piano only sprinkled late is new. And demands I go listen to that recording from half a century ago.#AbdullahIbrahim #DollarBrand #JohnTchicai #Jabula #Jabulani

#AsherGamedze - Alibama
https://youtu.be/nAjMY1y5nL0?feature=sharedI don't know what it is about certain melodies and harmonies from #SouthAfrica, especially in a #Jazz context, but they are so distinct and identifiable to my ear. Was listening to this album, unaware that Gamedze is from Cape Town, and this came on and I immediately thought "South Africa"!
(Or maybe it's just a sign that I've listened to way too much #AbdullahIbrahim, my intro to that country's tremendous jazz history and artistry.)
The album is Turbulence and Pulse. It's excellent from top to bottom!
