Kippie was a close associate of my mother's elder sister who was born in 1938. We spent many hours in four roomed house listening to his saxophone. To some extent he influenced my career
Oh my God!!! This is so painfully nostalgic. We were seven siblings in a three-roomed house in Langa in the 50s and 60s and this was the sound those days. Only two of us are left now and my brother who comes after me is not very well. This saddens me but this music is uplifting. Wow!🙏🏽
Eish! Sadly he passed on on the 5th July and we buried him on the 9th. I saw that he did not recover from my sister’s passing last September. I’m the only sibling left now but God had blessed me with wonderful kids and a very supportive family. Thank you so much for your good wishes. 🙏🏽
I met bra Kippie through Levy Phahle who was a pianist who played with a band called Afro -Azania , the rest is history . He was a wonderful 🎷 Saxophonist. May his soul rest in peace. Khulu Radebe.
My uncle Jeff "hooja" was kippie's best friend they had a quartet Jeff on the double bass Ronny jew boy on the drums kippie and Sol..(white guy).,on horns they use to come to our house in Meyer Street Sophiatown 1955...I was 6 yrs old. There was two whites in the band and that time Apartheid was just born...they were playing together with no problem
South African Jazz is serious underestimated, the likes of Kippie, Ntoni, Danyi and Ngcukana. They Jazz and gave it a South African flair. Miss township life
The record sleeve says it's not Kippie at all. The rest of the CD replicates 'Tshona'. "African Day Bass - Sipho Gumede Drums - Gilbert Mathews Piano - Tete Mbambisa Tenor Saxophone - Barney Rachabane, Basil Coetzee, Duku Makasi" The picture is from a one-off practice jam at the Langa Community Centre before a concert in Cape Town, 1971.
Met Bra Vic in The Bronx as a youngster. Sort of thought i Knew the cat.... Until I heard this in my sunset years. Wow! My outie! And Morolong hy rol sos 'n Sofisticat van Ndofaya. Eita Daar!
Ntate Kippie "Morolong" Moeketsi ka sebele. I remember my days as a little boy just hearing these sounds at our home and in the neighborhood. Wow this is beautiful....bless their talent always, I'm not sure if Danyi Ndlovu is still alive.
+Luther Lubi Will upload more soon. I accidentally didn't save my video editing software when i formatted my HDD, hence the lack of uploads on my channel for a while now.
There's really no one definitive source to reliably get good material. People just have files of music on their computers that they don't share - a lot of the stuff on my channel i got from various people during my varsity years with a USB flash drive. I just listened to it, deleted what I didn't like and kept what I did (which was a lot!). These days I buy albums though - hard-copy. I buy at least one every month end. I bought a 3 CD set of Davis Quintet last month ("Cookin", "Steamin" and "Relaxin"). I've decided to start collecting. With these, I find the approach is the same: which is how I also engage with American Jazz. Even if you've never heard the musician play, just buy the album - you could really find stuff you like. A sound that's purely just for you, as these artists have different approaches to music. The American stuff is extremely good too! I discovered Milt Jackson late December last year - a genius jazz vibraharp player I'd never heard of until then. I just saw one album in a store (had never heard of the guy), bought it, went home and was just simply blown away. I own 3 albums by him now (Jackson released over 70 albums in his entire career). Here are some songs of his you might really like: [1] th-cam.com/video/loKscILy_9I/w-d-xo.html [2] th-cam.com/video/NHold6ylvEM/w-d-xo.html
Your persistence of incorrect attributions and lack of referencing the photographer (Ian Bruce Huntlley) is a poor show. None of the photopraphed artists appear on this recording.
Very correct. The labels in the pic above are wrong. See the full line up here: Bass - Sipho Gumede Drums - Gilbert Mathews Piano - Tete Mbambisa Tenor Saxophone - Barney Rachabane, Basil Coetzee, Duku Makasi Ntate Kippie wrote most of the songs in the album where this track is found but he did not write nor play in this particular one
Gotten from this album --> www.amazon.co.uk/Jazz-Africa-Vol-2-Various/dp/B0000250ML Strangely the owner of the track is not even written in the cd jacket (I bought a copy off amazon). The song is not found either on Itunes nor Deezer and google provides no decent info. Amazing music. Beautiful groove.
Incorrect information - Kippie Moeketsi does not feature on this track at all - nor do Danayi Dlova or Victor Ntoni. Please correct this as per comment from Jonathan Eato below - otherwise you do a dis-service and disrespect to this music and the artists involved
Thanx for the reference, I didn't know of Mbamiso. I checked, Kippie's track was released in 1975 and Mbambiso a year later (www.discogs.com/Tete-Mbambisa-Tetes-Big-Sound/release/6756681), so I suspect Mbabiso's is a rendition of Kippie's song, just as Bheki Mseleku's The Age of Inner Knowing was a rendition of Mary Lou Williams' Dirge Blues (th-cam.com/video/tjmAkz-7RBo/w-d-xo.html). Mbambiso's song is just as good actually, I listened to it now and added it to my playlist. 70s South African Jazz was very good, hey.
What Kippie track is it you're talking about? No offense, but it has already been established by Jonathan Eato that Kippie has nothing to do with "African Day." I'm suspecting you're mistakingly attributing it to Kippie because of this cd-compilation, but that still doesn't make it a Kippie track: www.discogs.com/Various-Jazz-In-Africa-Volume-Two/release/8277108

I hope he gets better... I was born in '94 and happy to travel so far back in time... beautiful music
I hope and pray that your brother is well. I relate so much with this music too.

Always make me feel humble and quiet whenever I listen to South African Jazz.
south african jazz is the best
This Music is so soulful and uplifting . Thanks for sharing .
I can't stop listening, this is great African jazz
all "jazz" emanates from African musical form and sensibility.
I agree.
I'm 32 and this is my first time hearing this song
Tete Mbambisa (p), Barney Rachabane (a sax), Duku Makasi/Basil Coetzee (t sax), Sipho Gumede (b) and Gilbert Matthews (d).
Just great, and at this moment I'm in Africa ( soul )
I play and replay this, while the winds softly bring down the yellowed leaves of the birches. Late September, very far north from South Africa.
MADABOUT THIS JAZZ.SO AUTHENTIC
African Jazz sounds great to me and are thoughtful.
The simplier the better, this is good music..

Viva jazz vet
Much respect to Kippie, but this is a Tete Mbambisa track, with Basil Coetzee, Barney Rachabane, Duke Makasi, Gilbert Matthews
... and Sipho Gumede
Please don't forget the jazz apistels
Fantastisk Söder Afrikanskt klang.
2020.... mark the register please
Amazing ! Who is playing like this nowadays ?
Jeremy Hattingh i wish i knew..
We do. We are here😊
à la limite de l'envoûtement.

Don't know Danyi Ndlovu but thats not him in the picture.
That is the late Duku "Bra Duke" Makasi of New Brighton Port Elizabeth.
Very correct. The labels in the pic above are wrong. See the full line up here:

Does anyone know what original LP is this beauty taken from?

Amazing music. Beautiful groove.
The moaning bass echoes Jonas Gwangwa's recordings.

Hi
How can I find this music on Apple Music?
It is not on any platform. Just available in a rare city compilation.
Is this a remake of Tete Mbambiso's Stay Cool? Sound the same but this one is a bit faster and longer.
Thanx for the reference, I didn't know of Mbamiso.
