He passed away earlier this year, but not before he could compile this retrospective, \u003ci\u003eMasekela 66-76\u003c\/i\u003e, with the help of his friend and fellow musician Stewart Levine. A world-class trumpeter \u0026amp; flugelhornist, Masekela's distinctive playing is captured over 7 discs, and the tracks, 47 to be exact, are selected from 11 albums that varied much in style \u0026amp; substance. It's important to note that some of the materials on here were recorded after he was exiled from SA and residing in the US. The political movements and world affairs (anti-apartheid \/ black power \/ anti-Vietnam movements, for example) inform the songwriting, and Masekela expresses his raw emotions arising from said involvements on a lot of the records. This is the definitive collection of the legendary artist's work, and a good chunk of the selections have not appeared on vinyl for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7 LP boxet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eincludes six-page booklet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emusic label: Wrasse Records 2018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003ereviewed by pocari papi 07\/18\u003c\/h6\u003e.","brand":"Hugh Masekela","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl 7LP Boxset","offer_id":12122851016824,"sku":"fr-3921","price":129.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/4542\/products\/hughmasakela-boxset.jpg?v=1759273414","url":"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.mom\/products\/hugh-masekela-masekela-66-76-vinyl-7lp-boxset","provider":"turntablelab.mom","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
