A complete discography is still under compilation by Nick Shears as of October 96. Meanwhile, there is a partial discography at the GMO site.
Unfortunately, the University of Wisconsin lyrics site, which had the lyrics for a few recordings, has been shut down. We are working on compiling a set of lyrics -- it is not complete, but some lyrics are ready. Zulu translations are pretty hard to come by, but we're assembling what we can.

Andy Innes, a member of Juluka, is periodically posting guitar chords on his home page
Scott Gianelli posted the chords to "Impi" to the list on 17 September 1996; see Digest #35, available from the Scatterlist archives.
On the summer 1996 US tour, the band members and their main instruments were: Johnny Clegg (vocals, guitar, concertina); Sipho Mchunu (vocals, guitar), Andrew Innes (guitar, mandolin), Kevin Gibson (percussion), Keith Hutchinson (keyboards, flute, saxophone), Solly Letwaba (bass guitar), and Mandisa Dlanga (vocals).
From Chicago onward, Clegg was playing a red Parker Fly guitar; earlier he had been using two Fender Santarosas. Mchunu uses a Morris flatbody acoustic/electric, usually played in Zulu tuning (top E tuned to D). Innes uses the following instruments: Valley Arts Standard Pro (w/EMG's and Floyd Rose trem.); Patrick Eggle Berlin Pro; Gibson Chet Atkins SST; Ovation Mandolin (new series); and Morris Tornado shallow bowl electric/acoustic. Gibson was playing Pearl drums. (Thanks to Andy Innes for most of this info; for lots of good further guitar-related information, chords, etc., see Andy's home page.
