Sunday Morning with Archie Roach..”a child was born..”
Nov 9th, 2008 by Dr. Robert
Easily one of my favorite artists..stumbled across hid 2nd LP..”Jamu Dreaming”..in the mid nineties and have never looked back..
A powerful singer songwriter..spokesman for his Australian Aboriginal people..his songs have helped crystallize conciousness and awareness for so many Australians..black and white.
This particular song is from “Looking for Butterboy”..which features a duet with his partner..Ruby Hunter..herself an incredible singer with a Jimmy Scott range of octaves and notes.
There’s not a whole lot on the youtube of Archie..but also check the “Jamu Dreaming” video…chilling and powerful music.
