So much for 50 Cents

by Posted on

Caught some jazz at the Mannenberg on sat. Victor Kunonga and his band, Peace. Holy crap, this dude, actually knows what he’s doing…I’ve been missing out.

I mean, I am a jazz fan, it’s just I never thought this dude had anything. You know, the whole he’s just another Tuk-alike, an Oliver Mtukudzi in training. AT actually went as far as calling him the next tuku.

Anyway, whoever he is, he’s got a lot going for him. His voice ain’t that bad, but the boy’s got some serious skill with a guitar. And that band – thelead guitarist is shit-hot, bass is pumping heavy and the percussionist is, well, fecking awesome.

I actually had a great, haven’t had a good jazz xperience in a long time. And to think I could have gone to Circus. Pah!

  1. Well.. Joe why dont you promote the guy by buying his original CD. He actually has two albums out.. I just found out that Tuku has 49 albums.. imagine how long it took this guy to be known worlwide.. wonder if Victor can make it in a couple of years

  2. If I knew where to get the CDs…it’s not easy to just walk into a CD shop and find what you wanted anymore. Quite hard, actually.

    I’ll go round and have a look, maybe I’ll get sum’in
