SA Legends – Ladysmith Black Mambazo - Over Sixty Years Later, The Impossible Dream Continues

Once upon a time there was a teenage boy working on his family farm in apartheid South Africa. The year was 1960. This boy loved to sing, in fact he loved to sing so much that he allowed himself to dream. In his dream he would create a group of singers, from his family members and sing traditional South African songs. His group would perform all over South Africa and they would become the greatest music group his country would ever know. How could such a dream come to a young farm boy in a country rife with hardship, violence and trouble? Well, Joseph Shabalala was this young farm boy and his dream would become Ladysmith Black Mambazo. The year 2024 marks the 64th anniversary of Joseph Shabalala forming Ladysmith Black Mambazo.
