Sing Me a Song

by Miriam Makeba

Overview

An album of relatively satisfactory South African music from Miriam Makeba, the South African diva herself. The album was recorded in South Africa in 1993, and released in the same year. There are potentially other albums of Makeba's that showcase more traditional music, and those that showcase more cutting-edge music. This one has a little of both, but not quite enough of either. Overall a decently nice album, but not necessarily anything for someone that's less than a pure Makeba fan. ~ Adam Greenberg
