@shan128 wow. i assume your sense of humor must have developed the last 40 years as well. I just can not imagine that you were already this funny in the 70's...

What crowd were you in...a KKK meeting..???

I remember being in a large crowd in the '70's when his protest "song" called "Johannesburg" came on TV.... Not a single person in the crowd was free from tears of laughter: "What's the word?"-dink dink dink dink dink "JO-HAN-ISS-BURG!!!" At least he's managed to learn to play his instrument in the last forty years and developed some melodic talent which was NOT there in the '70's The Laughter (not the Revolution) was televised!!

Wish the radio stations would play it more often during Christmas time.
SWEET ! How old is this clip ? Any idea if he's playing live anytime soon ??

Glad you enjoyed it...this performance was taped in 95. He has done a few gigs this year...SOB's in NYC and Carnegie Hall w/ Mos Def. Hopefully he'll do more in future.
