HUGH MASEKELA - HOPE (180g 45rpm 2LP)


Hugh Masekela – Hope on 180g 2-LP 45-RPM Set!
One of the Most Exciting LPs of the Year!

Audiophiles have long lusted for a great analog pressing of this highly sought after Hugh Masekela disc, and now it’s finally available! Those of you who are not familiar with this incredible live recording from 1993 might remember the version of “Stimela (Coal Train)” from the Burmester Sampler Disc taken from this recording. Hope is one of those audiophile favorites because it transports you into the venue – with unbelievable sound-staging and the most life-like dynamic transients you’ve ever heard. Cut from the original analog master by Kevin Grey and cut on 180g Virgin Vinyl at RTI, this 45-RPM set is black gold!

Hugh Masekela has an extensive jazz background and credentials, but has enjoyed major success as one of the earliest leaders in the world fusion mode. Hugh Masekela, the outstanding South African trumpeter, assembled a seven-piece group and recorded this great set live at Washington, D.C.'s Blues Alley. The songs stretch over a period of nearly five decades and serve as an informal guided tour of Masekela's life. The songs are honest and bare, and as for the sound – WOW! Do not miss this one!

“Wow! Hugh Masekela never sounded more real – the BEST Masekela album, a definitive must have!"
– Danny Kaey, Positive-Feedback
