Mahlathini & The Mahotella Queens - Mbaqanga (1991)



The great Mahlathini, the most unique voice in the history of pop music! Go ahead and debate that at your peril. This guy makes Tom Waits sound like Julie Andrews.

Sad story in the comments to the video though, check it out. That exploitation shit can be harsh.
