Toto's "Africa" like you haven't seen it.....

[OCNaturalDoc]

Perpetuum Jazzile is an a cappella jazz choir from Slovenia.

The beginning of this video is great....group members simulate an African thunderstorm with their hands. Don't turn up your sound - the sound of raindrops begins really soft, then builds.

Pretty kewl.

Wow! That was really kewl - kind of like a "Stomp" performance but with a melody. I'm definitely going to check out more.

Very, very awesome. I've always thought Luke and the Porcaro boys got a bad rap - in the sense that they were so popular, lots of musos never took Toto seriously. Africa is a genuinely cool piece of songwriting, and this is a really cool take on it. And there's always something about great a capella work that really hits me - maybe cuz I'm not a good singer.

Thanks for posting this - really nice.
