    Makgona Tsohle Band Take Your Time / Marabi Blues

    • Makgona Tsohle Band – Take Your Time
    • Makgona Tsohle Band – Marabi Blues
    • 1. Take Your Time
    • 2. Marabi Blues

    Umsakazo records release the first in a series of limited-edition, replica 45rpm records - key holy-grail recordings made during the golden age of South African township jive. It's appropriate that the first in this series comes from the band so closely identified with the genesis of the style - the Makgona Tsohle Band - the hardest working session team in apartheid-era South Africa.
