there's too much sadness to go around in Miriam Makeba dying. I'm sure people are hearing her stuff everywhere. my most real favorite of her songs I possess only in a vinyl form I don't know how to squeeeeze into the computer, but her version of mbube (the song will prove familiar if the title doesn't) is a close second. in her youth she sang with a lycanthrope's fervor. the hour of what we are melting into. great stuff. anyhow, listen to this in case you don't believe me. working on a bigger post for sometime spoon.
