South African jazz - fixed links & contributions

I noticed that some of the links in my big SA-jazz post weren't working any longer. Some of the things linked to just moved elsewhere on the wwww, and here's the place to put those links.

:.:.:.:.:

The general links are still good, and that AAJ site remains one of the best starting points. In the article section, several links aren't working any longer, though - here's a fixed list.

Another site about Abdullah Ibrahim:

Bebop and beyond the blues – South African Jazz History:
moved to: http://www.jazzrendezvous.co.za/special/spe2006062705.php

The article on the Drum Magazine has gone. It's the one linked to (dead link!) here:
http://africanhistory.about.com/b/2006/01/31/the-significance-of-drum-magazine-during-apartheid.htm

That site where the Galeta and Bebop and beyond articles are up on is quite interesting by itself, go have a look:

There's an interview with guitar player Jimmy Dludlu up there, too:

I won't double check the musician links, sorry - too much work! But if you find other interesting sites, please do post them in the comments here!
