The first time I heard about Miriam Makeba was when I was in high school. My sister had bought a TV and Video and the first film was the famous 'Sarafina' we watched it every week, loved the music and the main included Miriam makeba as Angelina, Whoopi Goldberg as Mary Masembuko and Leleti Khumalo as Sarafina.
God rest her soul!
Miriam Makeba's Voice in those songs just came back recalling the memories and how I loved that film. And also many people in Italy talked to me 'Mama Africa'
