£8.99

This Rough Guide explores the jazz scene of one of the world’s greatest musical powerhouses. The selection features the fiery sound of South African jazz at its most intense, during the progressive 1960s, when many of the country’s finest musicians were forced into exile by apartheid. It also takes in the golden era of the 1950s and looks at the modern sound of the new ‘rainbow nation’.
