Hi All:
This Is Vickie, does anyone have contact info for Mr. Masekela..yep, it's for the book.
Let me know, he's been a tough one to locate.
If anyone knows a record company he may be signed with that's a start.
Thanks a bunch :)

I can't help you locate the man, but he still tours, I saw him twice in the last few years here in Toronto. Might he still live in South Africa? His last cd was called '70', I think, and I don't know the label... funny, I had 'Mace & Grenades' in repeat mode over the week end (offa 'Masekela' lp, UNI -1969 I think)...

Maybe I have the name of the tune wrong, but I thought there was a great cut in the '70s by Hugh Masakela called "High Life." Am I right? Does it exist on CD?

Hi Vickie,

Hugh Masakela was a partner in a production company / record label called Chisa which was
distributed for a time by Motown.

His partner was producer Stewart Levine.

I'd try a search using "Chisa" and / or "Masakela"
and see what turns up.

Probably a mistyping, but do bear in mind the spelling is Masekela - MasEkela - not MasAkela ;o)

Hey Ritchie & Davie,
Thanks, I will look for him further, so far all leads have been empty, he may be out of the country one source said..
Thanks so much..
Vickie :)

Hey Davie,
Thanks again, adding Chisa and Stewart's name to the search yielded an email address, so thanks!! Before I just ended up with bios and music publishers that did not get back to me..
THANKS....
:) Vickie

Yes, indeed Ralph!
I was supposed to take a little break from "Tammi" today, but already it's almost 3PM and as always one little thing leads to another..
Tomorow is surfing, so I'll take a break tomorrow..

I just gave Ralph a hard time yesterday for calling Weldon - Wendall....

My brain is fried....
I am on overload at the moment, trying to get a lot done while I am on vacation.

Blondie - no apology required. I'm flattered... I'm not nearly so suave, debonair and dashing as our Mr T!

Have a good day surfing tomorrow. (Hope your board is well-waxed for the occasion, and try not to wipe out when you're shooting the curl.)
