Blue Stompin' is a collaborative album between Kippie Moketsi and Hal Singer that was organized and produced by Rashid Vally, owner of The Sun record label. The album prominently features both influential saxophonists as well as other iconic South African players Barney Rachabane and Pat Matshikiza. It was originally released by The Sun in 1977 and is being reissued by We Are Busy Bodies in partnership with the original label. The album has been remastered by Noah Mintz at Lacquer Channel. ---- 'Kippie Morolong Moketsi will appear very prominently in any history of jazz in South Africa. He will span the period from the frantic years when the sounds of the Charlie Parker's and the Dizzy Gillespie's first hit our shores to the now. And into this story some will read a curve: from Kippie teaching himself music by imitation, to a climax of artistic achievement and renown in this country, and then the decline... Others will read a lifetime of involvement, in spite of personal problems. Count me among the latter. A life-time of involvement: Kippie was among the few who understood bebop while the rest of us were still doing the jitterbug to the sounds of swing. In his way he made us see what it was all about. He has seen a generation of colleagues go to join the Orchestra Up Yonder, or merely leave their horns to spiders and their webs while they got on the straight and narrow path of grandfather-hood and six to six jobs at factories. Kippie continues on the wide, wide ' often unappreciated - road, creating music.' Notes by JOE Thloloe (Jazz Critic Drum Magazine)

Blue Stompin' es un álbum de colaboración entre Kippie Moketsi y Hal Singer que fue organizado y producido por Rashid Vally, propietario del sello discográfico The Sun. El álbum cuenta con la participación destacada de ambos influyentes saxofonistas, así como de otros icónicos músicos sudafricanos, Barney Rachabane y Pat Matshikiza. Fue publicado originalmente por The Sun en 1977 y We Are Busy Bodies lo reedita en colaboración con el sello original. El álbum ha sido remasterizado por Noah Mintz en Lacquer Channel. ---- "Kippie Morolong Moketsi ocupará un lugar destacado en cualquier historia del jazz en Sudáfrica. Abarcará desde los frenéticos años en que los sonidos de Charlie Parker y Dizzy Gillespie llegaron por primera vez a nuestras costas hasta la actualidad. Y en esta historia algunos leerán una curva: desde Kippie enseñándose a sí mismo música por imitación, hasta un clímax de logros artísticos y renombre en este país, y luego el declive... Otros leerán una vida de compromiso, a pesar de los problemas personales. Cuenten conmigo entre estos últimos. Toda una vida de compromiso: Kippie fue uno de los pocos que entendió el bebop cuando el resto de nosotros aún bailábamos jitterbug al son del swing. A su manera, nos hizo ver de qué iba todo aquello. Ha visto a una generación de colegas ir a unirse a la Orchestra Up Yonder, o simplemente dejar sus cuernos a las arañas y sus telarañas mientras se metían por el camino recto y estrecho de la abuelidad y los trabajos de seis en seis en las fábricas. Kippie continúa por el ancho, ancho ' a menudo poco apreciado - camino, creando música.' Notas de JOE Thloloe (Crítico de Jazz Drum Magazine)
