Deliciously cool African pop/folk/jazz from one of the leading lights in Zimbabwean music. Featuring his warm, lived-in, vocals, sharp arrangements, a top-notch band, and wonderful compositions. In Shona.
*1. Relaxed and warm w/great sax/vocal harmonies. So good.
2. Bright and swaying w/a joyful energy.
3. Mid/upbeat Afro pop w/a more plugged-in sound.
*4. Light, midtempo w/a slight bounce and relaxed sound.
*5. Mid/upbeat w/extra good use of chorus.
6. Midtempo w/good strings/sax. Nicely bright.
7. Relaxed and a bit subdued w/a slight touch of jazz.
8. Mid/upbeat w/strong vocals & a driving sound.
9. Piano/sax intro midtempo w/a reflective air.
*10. Midtempo w/strong chorus & a relaxed sway.
*11. Midtempo w/bright sax accents & cool vocals.
*12. Upbeat w/a soukous-y feel & sweet melody.
