This album is, strictly speaking, outside our purview but the material is so exhilarating that we just had to include a short review of it. The original film, The Lion King, was, of course, one of Disney’s biggest successes and perhaps Simba’s Pride will be equally successful. The album’s music is a comfortable mix of ethnic African and Western Pop styles together with songs with the original cast from the films. Both Tina Turner and Elton John relish their material but it is The South African Choir’s sheer joy of singing that makes this album so attractive. ‘Ideal for cheering up a long car journey.
