Chibite [Import]

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
Zawose can perform magic with his voice. He and his son--armed only with voices, thumb pianos, a Tanzanian violin, and ankle bells--create a landscape that takes you far away from the wherever you reside. So you don't understand a word? Who cares? The meaning and joy seep into your mind. This is music for the love of making music--something we seem to have largely forgotten in the rush of industry, biz, and hype. This is simply beauty on a stick. And it doesn't hurt that Zawose has one of the world's most mesmerizing voices. It grabs you and won't let go, like Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, and perhaps one or two others. So listen to this, and then try to claim there's no magic in the world anymore. --Chris Nickson

5 out of 5 stars my new favorite album.......2005-03-26

after being music director of a college radio station for several years, i was exposed to unbelievable amounts of music and hype, which left me hating most music i encountered. it's good to know that i can still get excited about artists. i can listen to hukwe zawose over and over without it feeling like a terrible chore. highly, highly recommended.

5 out of 5 stars The most amazing musician !.......2000-05-11

The music on this album is so amazing, it is far beyond words. Hukwe Zawose's voice is nothing like you have ever heard before. Sometimes it is soft and sweet, sometimes growling and heavy. The songs are all wonderful. Each song drew me inside to a strange and beautiful world of sounds. I believe this cd is one of the best cd's I have ever had. Anyone who likes music must have it !

5 out of 5 stars You cannot dislike this music.......1999-04-05

This CD is great - I'm going to buy the other Hukwe Zawose immediately
