Sangoma is an album by the South African musician Miriam Makeba, released in 1988. It was a comeback album after a long pause since Comme une symphonie d'amour, in 1979, spurred by touring with Paul Simon, who was promoting his album Graceland. The album's chants were taught to Makeba by her mother. While recording this album she was in a wheelchair due to fracturing her leg while on the Graceland tour.
