In the 1920s, South African musicians embraced American jazz. First by imitating it, then by integrating it into their traditional music, they invented their own style. In the early 1960s, the apartheid regime tightened its grip, stifling musicians' creativity and driving some into exile, including trumpeter Hugh Masekela. Masekela and many others, such as Dollar Brand (Abdullah Ibrahim), Miriam Makeba and Chris McGregor, became spokespeople for resistance to institutionalised racism. Sounds of Shebeen, carried by Cotonete's rhythm section, pays tribute to Hugh Masekela and his colleagues and tells the story of an oppressed but resilient people in search of freedom.
