The Heshoo Beshoo Group - Armitage Road (1971, JLP 4021). This beautiful spiritual jazz LP coming from South Africa. Fabulous music, ranging from Coltranesque uplifting style to more funky rhythm a la Black Jazz label. Both french and South African press are invisibles and highly sought after. ....Heshoo Beshoo means moving forward with force. On so many levels this recording is a strong statement of self determination, creativity and freedom in the midst of the brutual subjugation of black South Africans by the Apartheid government. The LP had a limited release in South Africa as well as a subsequent release in France. In 1971 Henry and Stanley were approached by guitarist Adolphus "Bunny" Luthuli to get a band together to compete in the Alco Best Band Competition at Jabulani Stadium in April 1971.
