    Still to this day, in my 60's I can't get enough of this mans genius and greatness. He is truly a man born before his time. He is one on the top of the list of the GREATEST. I thank or heavenly father for allowing me to live in this lifetime to witness this truly blessed soul. I want to witness him play live before I leave this earth.

    I was at my public library with my son and decided to look through the cd section and I saw a cd by this man called World Africa Masekela Revival. I hadn't heard him in years and actually had forgot about him. I'm like OMG!! So I checked it out. I just listened to the whole cd and I think my fav off that cd is Fresh Air! Then I started loking up more music by him!! So glad I did. This one is my all time favorite

    I loved Hugh. Some of the greatest musicans came from Africa. It's a shame they didn't get the recognition they deserved. I love "Grazing in the Grass" it was one of my favorites! RIP Hugh.

    Awesome. Brings back so many memories of my earlier years. Thanks for uploading. I'm so glad to have seen him at Kuumbwa, when I had the chance with you Craig. Hugh's performance that evening totally exceeded my expectations. I tried to get my son, Christian, to go but he had other priorities.......but so many of his musician friends were there..... :)
    I constantly remind him to see the legends while he can. We don't know how much longer they will still be with us......none of us has a contract with the Almighty......He/She calls us when they choose. ~Peace

    From a trumpeter: He's got a leaky water key. Dripping like crazy. That means air is escaping, effecting playing and sound. Most likely he needs a new water key cork. or a new spring. Also, this song sounds much better on a trumpet than a flugelhorn.
