"When Mapfumo started to develop his Chimurenga style, he did something revolutionary by Zimbabwe standards: he wrote his own tunes to his songs. Until then, pop songs were based on traditional melodies. This set brings together Mapfumo's first (and some say best) singles that were released in Zimbabwe before he gained major label international success in the late '80s. Seventeen tracks including 'Tombi Wachena.' Detailed liner notes."
