MAMA AFRICA RETURNS: South African singer Miriam Makeba marks the 10th anniversary of the end of apartheid and Nelson Mandela's June 1994 election as president with her first album in four years. "Reflections" reflects on her five-decade career with new arrangements of many of her classic songs. Heads Up International will release the album internationally June 22. Among the 13 tracks are new versions of "Pata Pata," "Click Song" and other early hits. "These are some of the songs most associated with me from different times in my life," she says, "and it was a joy to sing and record them again." After more than three decades in exile, Makeba returned to South Africa at Mandela's request after his 1990 release from prison.NIGEL WILLIAMSON
