Zaire 74 (original) (raw)
O Zaire 74 foi um festival de música ao vivo de três dias que aconteceu de 22 a 24 de setembro de 1974 no Estádio 20 de maio em Kinshasa, Zaire (actual República Democrática do Congo). O concerto, idealizado pelo trompetista sul-africano Hugh Masekela e pelo produtor musical , pretendia ser um grande evento promocional para a luta pelo campeonato de boxe de peso-pesado entre Muhammad Ali e George Foreman, conhecido como The Rumble in the Jungle. Quando uma lesão forçou Foreman a adiar a luta por seis semanas, o público-alvo de turistas internacionais do festival foi praticamente eliminado e Levine teve que decidir se cancelava ou não o evento. A decisão foi feita para seguir em frente e 80.000 pessoas compareceram.

(fr) Zaire 74 was a three-day live music festival that took place on 22 to 24 September 1974 at the Stade du 20 Mai in Kinshasa, Zaire (now Democratic Republic of the Congo). The concert, conceived by South African trumpeter Hugh Masekela and record producer Stewart Levine, was meant to be a major promotional event for the heavyweight boxing championship match between Muhammad Ali and George Foreman, known as The Rumble in the Jungle. When an injury forced Foreman to postpone the fight by six weeks, the festival's intended audience of international tourists was all but eliminated and Levine had to decide whether or not to cancel the event. The decision was made to move forward, and 80,000 people attended. In addition to promoting the Ali-Foreman fight, the Zaire 74 event was intended to present and promote racial and cultural solidarity between African American and African people. Thirty one performing groups, 17 from Zaire and 14 from overseas, performed. Featured performers included top R&B and soul artists from the United States such as James Brown, Bill Withers, B.B. King, and The Spinners as well as prominent African performers such as Miriam Makeba, Zaïko Langa Langa, TPOK Jazz, and Tabu Ley Rochereau.
