Discography
The Mahotella Queens are prolific recording artists, dating back to their 100+ sides recorded under various names for Gallo-Mavuthela in the 1960s and the 1970s. The Queens remained with Gallo until 2005 when they left the company, to be brought under the wings of AS Entertainment (headed by former Gallo managing director Antos Stella). Despite the fact that the Queens have recorded phenomenally, only a handful of their South African recordings are available to purchase outside the country, as most have now been discontinued and not reissued, in spite of the rise of a small "crossover" audience in South Africa. Some older recordings have been made available on CD and the Internet in recent years, but the majority of available recordings made by the group has been material recorded for and aimed at the international market.
