Thomas Mapfumo and the Blacks Unlimited
Chimurenga International
Gramma Records1993
Good morning, today we find us yet another album with
Thomas Mapfumo and the Blacks Unlimited. His chimurenga
has distinctive style and is to be recognized from thousands.
I have been a fan since the very first time I laid my ears on his
music. The record we have today is from 1993, maybe not his
best, but absolutely worth a couple of spins. We had eleven
other elpees with him, ten earlier and one later than this one.
Enjoy listening to Thomas Mapfumo & his Blacks Unlimited ..
Goeiemorgen, vandaag hebben we dit album met Thomas
Mapfumo and the Blacks Unlimited, Zijn chimurenga heeft
een zeer onderscheidend geluid en is altijd onmiddelijk her-
kenbaar. Vanaf de eerste keer dat ik naar zijn muziek luisterde
ben ik een fan. De plaat die we hier hebben is uit 1993, misschien
niet z’n allerbeste, maar zeker waard om eens een paar keer te
draaien. We hadden al elf van zijn andere elpees, tien oudere
en één nieuwere. Luister en geniet van Thomas
Mapfumo en z’n Blacks Unlimited ..

Nice one, thanks
Nice one, thank you. This album was released as a CD in USA on the ZimBob label with the title Vanhu Vatema. The song order was different, as it included 2 additional songs, the stone-cold mbira classic Hanzvadzi, and Ndozvamaida. Those two additions to the album add greatly to its status. When Gramma Records reissued the album on CD, it was a duplicate of the USA-released version right down to the track order, but they kept the title Chimurenga International.
