Various - Bertha Egnos Gail Lakiers Ipi Tombi Original Cast Recording
Review by Horus
The album Bertha Egnos Gail Lakiers Ipi Tombi Original Cast Recording by Various is a delightful musical experience that would transport you to the heart of South Africa. The album features the original cast recording of the legendary musical Ipi Tombi, which tells the story of the Zulu people and their rich cultural heritage through music and dance.
The album features a wide range of traditional African music, from the high-energy Zulu dance numbers to the soulful ballads that capture the essence of the African spirit. The songs are beautifully arranged and sung by the talented cast, who infuse each track with their own unique style and personality.
The standout tracks include the opening number "Ipi Tombi," which sets the tone for the entire album, and "The Warrior," a rousing anthem that celebrates the bravery and strength of the Zulu people. The album also includes several instrumental tracks, such as "The Drums" and "The Flute," which showcase the incredible musical talent of the cast.

I got to know of ipi tompi when this group came to Nigeria for festac 77 in 1977 since then ve been very emotional about most track of the music and up till date am chronic listener of the music. I dub it up for you guys
I was lucky enough to see this live in croydon uk. I remember covering my dads eyes when the dancers came on with no tops on ?
Have a good day inia hohia arapeta....
My mom took me to see this in San Francisco when I was a kid!!! ❤❤❤
Listening in January 2023. WoW, this brings back such wonderful childhood memories. ?? Saw this live at the Arts Theatre in UI, Ibadan, and still remember the stumping of the gumboots on the Arts Theatre stage. Such a wonderful and happy time. Although I do not even understand what they were saying i still memorised my version of the lyrics.? Would love to see the performance again.??
I’ve got the original LP from the 70s I fetched it back from Africa
Why is this just audio without video?
Was a 14 year old Canadian white boy going to Greenside High School in Johannesburg in 1974. The live show Ipi Tomb left an impression on my soul. Only other performance to come close was when I was invited to attend a church service in Soweto. Not at all a religious person, but that church singing blow my young mind.

This songs reminds me of Apatheid in South Africa
The bes
My mum had this vinyl and as kids we wore out in the early 90s. I never forgot Nadia will you remember me and I was humming it today and decided to do a search. Imagine my sick when it actually came up. And I remember almost all the songs even though I haven't listened to the album in almost 30 years
