Lucky Dube - a biography by Guy Henderson
"A Limited edition of this frank representation of Lucky Dube's life"
Lucky Dube was born into a hostile and racially prejudiced society and from poverty-stricken, rural beginnings the narrative reveals a troubled, underprivileged childhood, developing into an angry adolescence, from which the fantastic outcome was the fulfillment of his life's dream.
Constantly defying political dictates, his words and music gave hope to the majority of the nation. With his roots firmly in Africa, and with strong links to Rastafarianism, his unique voice and engaging melodies have always set him apart from his peers.
From the adulating crowds in South Africa, to the rigours and acclaim from international tours, this story takes us across America, to Europe and the Far East, then onwards through Africa, the Carribean, the South Pacific and beyond to fame and recognition.
