Listen to “Bolingo ya moitie moitie” by Ok jazz. You will be amazed by the wizardly exhibited in playing guitars and wind instruments.

The man was a real wizard. Kina madilu and tabu ley…I wish i was there for a day during their times

Hao waliaga juzi juzi tu.

These folks would play a series of songs, each 15 minutes long, hours on stage, all live nothing pre-recorded. By the time they were done they would be sweating from the effort, but the music remained impeccable to the very end.

Ask that of a modern musician, to sing and play like that and you would be killing them. Computer generated beats and lip syncing is the order of the day. And the way to maintain popularity is scandals day in day out on mharo sites and magazines.

Bwana mboka

John Mayer is also an epic guitarist and singer I feel he is underated in the rock community skiza his 2006 live album uniambie

Hehehe. One can listen to both. Ngoma za Madilu zilivuma before nizaliwe but bado nazienjoy.
