Zambian Music Heritage
Добавлен 13 фев 2023
This channel's goal is to help preserve and showcase Zambian music from the 70's, 80's and 90's. Uploads are scheduled for Tuesdays and Fridays.
Zambia has a rich musical history that is sadly on the verge of being lost. By uploading orphaned music to this channel, I seek to help preserve Zambia's musical legacy by making it accessible to people who may have access to the internet, but will never be able track down any of the increasingly rare records and tapes the music was sold on.
All records/tapes posted on this channel are from my personal collection. I do not have the resources to buy the cleanest copies available so many of the records/tapes I present are worn and noisy. Still, having them online for people to enjoy is far better than them languishing in a collector's storage room somewhere. If I get a cleaner copy of anything I upload, the older copy will be replaced.
I do not claim ownership of this music. All copyrights belong to their respective owners.

Chinsali Band - Tuli Nobulanda - Full Album
Zambian Music uploaded Tuesdays and Fridays. Please like and subscribe! Today's recording is something special. Chinsali Band was a band that played and recorded throughout the 1980's with at least 7 singles from 1981 through 1984. In the early 1990's, just before the collapse of the Zambian music industry, Zambia Music Parlour released Chinsali Band's first and only album (so far as I know), Tuli Nobulanda.
It's kind of a special album and a last hurrah for both Chinsali Band and Zambia Music Parlour. Tuli Nobulanda is currently the last known ZMP release with the label number ZMPL 91. There might have been a few after it given that ZMP released a Mulemena Boys album on CD in the early 2...

Webster Malama - Chinshi Wampatila - Full Single
Просмотров 6177 часов назад
Zambian Music uploaded Tuesdays and Fridays. Todays' recording comes from the great Webster Malama. This is one of four singles released under his name in the 1980's. It's a great record and a bit of a throwback to the Zamrock era mixed with Kalindula. The other known Malama record, Ndalya, is a rock heavy track. Thankfully, this record is in pretty good shape, so it can be enjoyed properly! We...

Like and Subscribe! Zambian Music uploaded Tuesdays and Fridays. Todays' recording comes from Kalambo Hit Parade. The song, from 1986, is in Mambwe and lives up to the name of the band with a catchy melody and excellent guitar work. This one is pretty catchy. This starts the new batch of records I've recently received. The record quality should be a lot better for most recordings moving forward...

Zambian Music uploaded Tuesdays and Thursdays. This single comes from the great rock and Kalindula band, The Five Revolutions. This one comes from 1983 on an unusual variant label, Twikatane Records. It's still Zambia Music Parlour, and as far as I know, the label name Twikatane was never used again. Ba Mpanga Manga is among their later singles. It shows all of their skill and musicianship.

Zambian Music records posted on Tuesdays and Fridays! For this recording we have Nashil Pichen Kazembe with an early Luapula record from the late 1970's. There are two songs on this one. Unlike a lot of my uploads, this one is recorded off a record that is in excellent physical condition, so the recording is clear and bright, and a great showcase for a pair of excellent Kazembe tracks. Nashil P...

Saika Daka Band - Sanje / Inkama Yakwalesa Liloba
Просмотров 378Месяц назад
Zambian Music uploaded Tuesdays and Fridays. This single comes from the Saika Daka Band. Somehow I managed to record it off a fairly warped record. One side has been uploaded to RUclips before, but this is the first time the entire single has been uploaded together. I've always like this early Kalindula band. I know very little about this band. They released a number of records via Zambia Music...
Mansa Radio Band & Spokes Chola - Njeni Kasala / Tata Kabumba
Просмотров 486Месяц назад
Zambian Music uploaded Tuesdays and Fridays. This single comes from the legendary blind musician and singer, Spokes Chola and the Mansa Radio Band. This one is really noisy because the record was badly abused. Each side gets better as it moves from the beginning. Both songs are pretty cool and I'm definitely going to look for a better copy of this one when I'm able, but it was too good not to s...

5 Revolutions - Mulumbwana - Full Single
Просмотров 1,1 тыс.Месяц назад
Zambian Music uploaded Tuesdays and Fridays. This lively single comes from the great rock and Kalindula band, The Five Revolutions. It's probably my favorite Kalindula song I've heard from them so far. Mulumbwana dates from around 1984. The song is in Lala, a language that is a relative of Bemba. The record label on this one looks like it's a photocopy of the original label. Perhaps this single...

Great singing
There was also Green Kayula of course there were brothers with Charles Kayula.
Are you saying the band members were all brothers?
If you know anything about Chinsali Band please comment below. There is very little information available online about many Zambian artists from the 70's and 80's so your stories and information could help preserve their history.
Wow. Just wow. Just wow, oh my God, and the memories now are flowing. The song has taken me to wonderful memories of yesteryear. Masterclass.
It's a fantastic song, to be sure!
Music which speaks louder about day to day living occurrences
Who else is with me listening to this great man. His music was and is still wonderful ❤❤ Mageret was so popular in bars taverns of the yesterday years. Rest in peace 😢😢
Do you know anything about Kalambo Hit Parade? Have memories to share? Comment below!
An exciting haul. Can't wait to hear some of these! 🎉
I love this one great memories, it brings back gud memories
Long time I heard the song thanks
Thank you
Thanks for this song ❤.
'Jesus Christ lead us in your ways ,we sinners. '
Who is listening to this sweet sound in 2024 it reminds me of steps night club and studio 22 in ndola zambia was just a teenager at that time .
Lovely songs,l need all songs for serenje band because am a follower of Lala songs
This was one of the best piece ever done by the 5 Revolutions
I heartily agree!
The song is a mourning song, remembering the fallen leaders etc the Chief of the land and others in Chibesakunda Kingdom of Chinsali.
When I was young we went into a bush in the area now called Kamwala South in Lusaka where we found our neighbour who hanged himself in a fruit tree called Tuchele, the man was from Malawi who left a wife and two beautiful girl children.
Oof. That's a dark story! Sometimes life becomes too much for some to manage I think.
This song reminds me of a lady who used to flirt with my uncle, that was years back in Kamwala compound
I met John Mwansa at what was called Kalipinde Inn in Lusaka , they played together with Smooky Haangala
I haven't heard too many of John Mwansa's solo stuff, but what I have heard is very good.
So these issues started happening a long time ago because I still hear similar issues happening now. 2024
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
They don't make them like this anymore...this is what I call music!!
Reminds me of my late father. Pichen was his favourite musician
This song reminds me of the good old days in Chawama, Lusaka, in the late 70s and early 80s
Nikawawa ❤ the unbeatable music of yesterday
i watched this song during zilile ngoma programme i will be more than happy if anyone posts on this forum.
The Voice of Kazembe in the song reminds me of the time I met Dr Nashil Pichen Kazembe for the first time in my life in 1990 or 1991 march before his demise same year in April .Great man he was.
Brilliant ❤
This music nikawawa 👍❤ pitchen did a lot in the Zambian music industry
Nipatali! Beautiful rhythm
Perfect track
Good song
Fam
Thank you so much for this song
I love this one. The guitar is very distinctive. Thank you for sharing.
Kamuchacho
Sweet music
I have been looking for des album for a very long time, it reminds me some time back in 1990/1991 when Brenda fassy and Jambo of south Africa came to Zambia in Independence stadium this album was played and we enjoyed and then we enjoyed from the South Africans.
Great music for concerts
Yaleteka nokuteka😂😂😂😂
Our early days this was one of the best music. During those no Yomaps
😂🎉❤❤
