Movie Summary
In 1986, Paul Simon released his album Graceland, a ground-breaking collaboration with some of South Africas finest musicians that brought the sensuous and expressive sounds of Township Jive to an international mass audience for the first time. Simon then mounted an international concert tour with several of the musicians that appeared on the album, and this home video release captures the final date of the tour in 1987, in which Simon, singer Miriam Makeba, trumpeter Hugh Masekela, and vocal group Ladysmith Black Mambazo brought the music back to Africa for a massive outdoor concert in Zimbabwe. Selections include The Boy in the Bubble, Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes, You Can Call Me Al, Homeless, I Know What I Know, Graceland, Gumboots, and 11 more. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
