By 1988, Zulu choral group Ladysmith Black Mambazo received a coveted Grammy award and achieved international celebrity and acclaim after featuring on Paul Simon's Graceland album. That same year, Paul Simon co-produced the album Journey Of Dreams, recording South Africa's most famous acappella group, mostly in their native Swahili.Produced at the peak of the band's popularity, Journey Of Dreams is a stirring documentary that charts the origins of the Ladysmith Black Mambazo sound, a communion of Christian gospel and traditional South African isicathamiya reminiscent of African blues music. Inspired by the gruelling lives of South African miners forced to work far away from the ghetto townships where family struggled to survive during the apartheid era, the isicathamiya style is a rallying cry for hope and liberation that has been powerfully translated to worldwide audiences by Ladysmith Black Mambazo for over 30 years.
