Still Crazy After All These Years, from 1975, won the Grammy award for album of the year; a feat he repeated with 1986's Graceland, recorded largely in Johannesburg after he became fascinated with the South African street music, mbaqanga.

The mbaqanga song “Umculo” — “music” in Zulu — is pure upbeat three-chord euphoria; the rhythm guitars are having a party of their own.

One sells DVDs of popular mbaqanga music artists; a herbalist offers a mixture that will “help you find love”.

Clegg, a Grammy nominee and Billboard music award winner known for his fluent Zulu which he mixed into his traditional folk music known as mbaqanga, was also a vocal critic of the apartheid government that ruled South Africa until 1994.

Inspired by a bootleg cassette of Mbaqanga music, Simon incorporated his own melodic style and storytelling skill into the sounds he had fallen in love with, recruiting Ladysmith Black Mambazo and the Gaza Sisters to realise his ambitious ideas.
