African Chanting

[gemfyre]

You know those Nescafe ads? Or the start of Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes by Paul Simon.

That African chanting. I would love to have a whole album of that kind of stuff.

But I have no idea what to look/Google for.

Anyone have any ideas?

I don't know the advert, but would it be Ladysmith Black Manbazo?

I was about to say the same thing. jjj used to play a bit of it, but someone listens to 94.5 so they wouldn't know real music.

I'd give http://www.magnatunes.com and http://www.amiestreet.com a go - they both have good selections of world music.

If you like Ladysmith Black Mambazo, you might also like Amadou and Mariam, Hugh Masekala and/or Thomas Mapfumo.

Google "World Music" and you should get a bunch of that sort of thing.
