Chuchumakhala (1954 jazz vocal recording)

Originally written for SATAB choir and published in 1937, Mohapeloa’s Chuchumakhala was evidently first recorded by the Manhattan Brothers with Miriam Makeba in 1954 (Gallotone GB2033). This historic recording was reissued in 2014 by ACE as Track 9 on the CD African Choral Legacy: Historic Recordings of Joshua Pulumo Mohapeloa. The choir version, recorded in 1983, is on track 23.
