The video is a unique township mbaqanga take on the Bob Dylan classic. It is also a moving tribute to Bra Hugh's lifetime friend, and legendary South African photographer Alf Kumalo.

Relax and enjoy the video with the song and the pictures :)
 
Thanks for sharing the video...wonderful music...great images...I was in Johannesburg in June of 1989...spent three weeks working at a Printing Business...a little scary at times but overall enjoyed the trip...saw some bad spots but was never in harms way. It gets your attention when your work escort points out a restuarant in the mall where recently someone placed a bomb under a table and walked away...
As a side note the owner of the Printing shop offered me a two year contract to run his business...he said financially I would do very well...I turned him down as I now had my dream job and we just bought our first house...
