This is music. Passion, depth, flavour....I've listened to this song a thousand times, but this performance is out of this world. RIP Ray Phiri. You are a master.
The loss of Ray Chikapa Phiri is a great loss not only to the south African music industry, but the worlds in general. His contribution through music both in South Africa and beyond has always been immense. He was such a marvel to watch, a great legend indeed. I feel honoured and of course gratified to have had an opportunity to watch Stimela many a times in Botswana during those 80s. I still remember that album 'listen, look and decide' that captivated Africa and the rest of the world for many years till to date. He has always been an inspiration to many of us including the music fraternity of South Africa. He may be gone but his music will continue to inspire many including today’s generation, this great son of the soil was a marvel to watch, his music saw us through those hard times of racial segregation, but remained to inspire us. I remember the track; Whispers in the deep, it still remains one of those great tracks. May your soul rest in eternal peace bra Ray.
*its all about a band that has a dream* This is best of the best Thank you Stimela for the grate music that had meaning. This is music that has stood the test of time
I must have been the same also when introduced to Stimela, my uncle had an Orange Escort and washing it on Saturdays he'd play stimela and be so happy, some 35 yrs later Im that uncle and play these for nephews and nieces, they dont buy it, too old for their liking 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lucky enough to have grown up when this music was on the radio and tv,there will never be a music era like this again,or another stimela again,Where did time go..?
they still relevant till today....full respect to the Stimela. Wanna thank my old man for introducing me to such professional artist at a younger age....till today i still listen to them. Thanx Mr Rubberpigg for the upload....your effort hasnt gone unnoticed
wish u could wake from the dead and bless us with your music bra Ray Phiri,I hope all those who were in love of stimela music who are no longer living they are with you and you blessing them with voice
I was there way back in the 80s ,I will never forget that fantastic performance! Skyline Motel was located 32KM outside Zimbabwe's capital Harare . Ray did not let down. Stimela's sound system,choreography,vocals and production on that night in Harare are difficult to emulate! LONG LIVE Ray Phiri...Long Live Stimela..
What great music, my dad introduced me to the group back in the 80s and am still all ears. Thanks Bra Greg, and rest in eternal peace. Chikapa and Stimela remain the best in 2018 and beyond,big ups!!
Came across this channel a few weeks ago,found lot of music my mom and dad used to play, brought back lovely memories growing up in my MamaLand.Thank you for posting.🇧🇼💗
We Lost a Giant Today.......Ray Phiri left to be with Our Afrikan Ancestors after battling cancer for 2 months. He will be truly missed, but his Message Lives On. Rest n Power !
