The Rough Guide To The Music Of South Africa
RGNET1178
South Africa is one of the great powerhouses of African music with a recording industry that stretches back to the early 20th century. From the lilting violins of the Soweto String Quartet to the African reggae of Lucky Dube, this all-new second edition of The Rough Guide To The Music of South Africa is a perfect introduction to the sounds of the rainbow nation.
'This packed CD demonstrated just how much South African music has dominated the presence of music from Africa.' BBC Radio 3
