Album Description
Available in: Country Icon Country Icon Country Icon
Graceland (1986) cristallise la fusion entre la pop occidentale et les structures polyrythmiques de la musique mbaqanga sud-africaine.
Enregistré dans un contexte de controverse politique liée à l'apartheid, l'album repose sur une ingénierie sonore hybride mêlant rythmes zoulous, arrangements zydeco et harmonies vocales denses (Ladysmith Black Mambazo).
Récompensé par le Grammy de l'Album de l'Année en 1987, ce disque a redéfini l'ethnomusicologie pop par sa complexité rythmique et sa production multicouche. Son succès commercial massif et son entrée au National Recording Registry en 2007 confirment son statut de monument de la production musicale mondiale.
