Came across this brother recently (where has
onthebuzz been), who is a veteran of sorts his debut album
Blufunk is a Fact was released in 1992.
Now nosing and digging around as you do from time to time, I am thinking this brother resembles
Fela Kuti a tad bit and with those guitar slapping licks and skills
Jimi Hendrix'
ish and continuing my nosing around escapade, found that these two prominent music figures (RIP) where major influences, solves the conundrum somewhat!
But to say
Olufemi Sanyaolu (
Keziah Jones) is an imitation is far far fetched because
Keziah Jones is the innovator of his unique style
Blufunk (blues with some funk) and boy can he play that instrument with strings LOL.
Keziah Jones Blufunk is a take on music i have rarely heard off, not bland, very energetic with
Afro beat influences, minimalist production and like the
Dakah Symphonic Hip Hop Orchestra is best experienced
LIVE.
Have a butchers and let it be known.
Originally written by Bob Dylan, Covered by the Jimi Hendrix Experience and now Keziah Jones
