SOUTH AFRICA Cat# CDGSP3073
Lucky Dube began his career by singing mbaqanga music in South Africa, and together with the Super Soul band, recorded his first album Kudala Ngikuncenga as early as 1982. The album was recorded during Luckys school holidays when he was just 18 years old. The album, although recorded with The Love Brothers, was released as Lucky Dube and The Super Soul. Lucky was the lead singer but did not write any of the material on that first record. His second album, Lengane Ngeyethu, came soon afterwards and Lucky was far more involved with the writing. He recorded a few other mbaqanga albums, and this Afrikaans album before moving into reggae. His early reggae albums include Think about the Children. Then he began doling out the hits: his albums Slave, Prisoner and Together As One saw him catapult to recognition firstly regionally and then globally. Lucky was tragically slain in an attempted hijacking in Johannesburg in 2007 whilst dropping off his children at a family members house.
