I'm not sure how many of you know this group by name, but you've probably heard their music. LBM is an acapella group of eight South African singers led by a legendary singer/songwriter named Joseph Shabalala. If you are familiar with Paul Simon's Graceland album or video, they're on it. I was privileged to hear them in person last evening. Awesome is the best way to describe them. If they come to your area, don't miss them!

I definitely remember them from the Graceland work - have the tape and CD, also saw the video a few times. Extraordinary sound.

I saw a Paul Simon concert with Ladysmith Black Mambazo. Love the song "Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes" and also the song "Going to Graceland."
