Just a mention of a truly great man passing. He was one who believed in peace and fairness, even when it was kept from him.

Rest well Madiba, "Good job-well done."

I am playing Ladysmith Black Mombasa today.

Nelson Mandella was one of the greatest influences on my character development. I reflected a lot on him today.
 
Don't know enough about the man to set forth an opinion one way or another (also don't know the validity of a lot of critical posts I've seen elsewhere) but Ladysmith Black Mombasa is definitely good music. I should dig out my CD's.
 
A saint...no...a man who saw the need for change, and started with changing himself....yes.

In his own words - "I am not a saint, unless you think of a saint as a sinner who keeps on trying."
