New Hugh Masekela Reissue Is Outstanding

From 1972, "Home Is Where The Music Is." I've wanted this on CD for decades. The recording is high quality as was the original LP. The reissue has all the original artwork of african paintings.

I took another listen tonight, and since reconfiguring my system I can now hear more of what you referred to in your original post. There is a "rawness" and soul in the performance of this recording I could not hear before that I hear now. Kudos...
