Great song!

I think in this record Carole Kaye plays the bass.

Personally I love the version that Hugh Masekela himself plays on disc Hope, with Bakithi Kumalo on bass. The whole disc is wonderful!

Yes, really like the newer version too. I understand it was the Crusaders backing him on the original, but at that point they didn't have a regular bass player.

It could easily have been Carol Kaye and Wikipedia is not always correct.

I think this time it's correct. I have looked in allmusic.com and appears to be Henry Franklin ;) You're right!
