If you like soul music, you like gospel. The greatest gospel group in South Africa is called Joyous Celebration, and they shift more units than any pop act. Untouched by apartheid, possibly the reason why gospel is very big news down here. I’m posting one song here called “Total Praise” or ”Thixo Bawo” in Xhosa, which is itself an astonishing performance, and in these religious communities total praise happens in a state of euphoria, but the reason why I’m banging on about it is the “Amen” at the end. This is very special stuff indeed. A euphoric Amen.
I can’t see the video here. Maybe you can. I’ve pasted the embed link, that’s all I can do. But here’s the URL : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rq8PPSDAr-w
Magic: I’ll say Amen to that! I have a CD of SA Gospel, it’s the Rough Guide to South African Gospel, 22 cuts, 73 minutes of wonderful variety. As with all the Rough Guides there’s a booklet with a descriptive paragraph on each cut. Hope you’re having a good time down there.
Bless you GF. You’re a major dude. I’m ready to go home, but one more week will do it…
That was powerful, if religious extremists want to know how to recruit, this is it. Not that I’m advocating religious extremism or anything.

Hey ej – thanks for dropping by. It is powerful isn’t it ? Thanks be to er God ? that Same Cooke, Al Green, Aretha Franklin et al went secular otherwise the USA would be really scary huh.
But see Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan for the same level of committment in a musical performance.
It’s not quite the same as entertainment, but I love it.
