There are two types of African music aficionados. There are those who delve deep into the music and unearth gems from across a continent whose musicality has essentially been ignored by the West and there are those who only know Fela Kuti and Hugh Masekela. This record is one that should both appeal to and teach something new to both of those camps.
CHISA was Hugh Masekela's label, both creatively and as a business venture. In partnership with producer Stewart Levine, the label made its name by releasing more than a dozen albums of Masekela's own work and another dozen or so records from The Jazz Crusaders. Neither of those very well-known bodies of work are represented on this CHISA retrospective.
The artists highlighted here represent the more obscure side of CHISA's ventures into Africa. Much of it still involves Masekela as a creative force (The Zulus were he and Levine's group). It also includes unreleased material from notable African artists including Caiphus Semenya, Letta Mbulu, Ojah, and Miatta Fahinbulleh. The overall feel of the record is one of fusion. Masekela's involvement in most of the recordings means his Afro-jazz leanings influence and are influenced by the varying musical stances of those he collaborated with. This record is substantial in that it completes the picture of Masekela's evolution as both a musician and a purveyor of music.
