Vusi Mahlasela, Norman Zulu, Jive Connection

Vusi Mahlasela, Norman Zulu & Jive Connection – ‘Face To Face’ (Strut, STRUT211LP) bridges South Africa and Sweden into an uplifting roots‑soul session: township jive guitars, rolling percussion, radiant harmonies and Vusi’s world‑class, hope‑charged voice. The songwriting leans anthemic without ever getting gaudy, and Strut’s production keeps it earthy and immediate. As an LP it plays like a road‑trip companion and a community gathering at once—spirit music for real life.
