It was produced by Hilton Rosenthal and released in 1984, at a time when South Africa was under apartheid, which banned inter-racial bands. The album was the first to include what would later be called "Zulu rock", and marks the first time the artists used synthesizers.

The song Ibhola Lethu featured soccer game commentaries from Nelson Nkululeko Guimede.

The album was also the last collaboration between Johnny and Sipho for 13 years. Sipho, who had a number of wives and children, decided to return to his farm with his family. Johnny Clegg would then form another band, Savuka, which would catapult him to international fame, but the two artists would finally reunite in 1997 for a new album, Crocodile Love.

gollark: Of course, if you donate arbitrarily large amounts of money to osmarks.net, we can buy a T4 or RTX 3090 or P100 or something.
gollark: Colab can probably just about run GPT-J (6 billion parameters) unless they assign you a K80.
gollark: You could use NovelAI. It's a hosted service for GPTous text generation for fictional purposes. It does cost capital, though.
gollark: Probably sufficient to run a 700M-parameter model at half precision.
