This is a wonderful presentation and storyline of the song. I love how he was curious and bent on learning their culture and music.

Yes, especially as the Government was trying to force racial segregation very much to the detriment of black people... most white people were being brainwashed into being racist people who would never have done something like this... he must have been a special man to go against the norm like that! I look forward to bringing you more of his songs with the Juluka band especially.
The one song I mentioned that is based on a Zulu Regiment defeating 800 British soldiers armed with rifles and cannons is based on the real battle of Isandlwana during the Anglo-Zulu war.
Wow, I have learned one history of the Zulu people, I can't wait to hear more inspiring songs and history from you.
