Listening to Lizzy...You just have to close your eyes...The song captures your imagination of the South African Jazz music scene of the 1950-1960s...The King Kong era...The Kwela Music..those great music legends...who graced the township music festivals...Indeed, Hugh Masekela is a Phenomenon...We really miss HIM dearly, but his music lives on...This is one one of my best Hugh Masekela Live Music collection...Thanks very much for bringing this live performance into our homes...Viva Stimela....Choo-Choo Makgala...!!!!

Bra Hugh left us with great music & will always be remembered. Grazing in the Grass still my old time favourite song

I'm envious of those who saw this performance live.
Watching it online now is beautiful, but it can't compare to experiencing such greatness in person.

This is what we call Heaven on Earth. Sir Hugh Masekela left us his life history to remember

I am beyond grateful this performance happened before he passed. What an experience!

Well done Bra Hugh and well done to the orchestra. We have got a vast history of South African people's music music that is untapped. Hugh Masekela here has done great from the Community Musician point of view. I like it when the community choirs are involved. Let's create fun and joy for all people!!! Thanks.
