HUGH MASEKELA

As a result of my friendship with a fine music person, Mr. John Cartwright, who was the best man in my wedding ceremony way back when, I had the privilege of being in the company of Hugh Masekela more than once.  I always found him gracious and REAL  Aside from making some great music for us, Hugh was heavily involved in worldwide human rights. If you check some of Masekela's recordings, you'll find John Cartwright as the bass player -- sometimes as the producer.  Today, April 4, 2019 would have been Hugh's 80th birthday.  I'm glad he was here with us for a while.
