Kampala Kool

Last time out we were in 1980s Kenya. Tonight we are hopping over the border into Uganda and forward thirty years for some modern pop. Thanks to a tip-off from my friend Lina - international brain-box and nail artiste - here is Mr Eddy Kenzo with a couple of tracks from his current album "Sitya Loss". Very catchy they are too.

"Come Over" - Eddy Kenzo

"Nze Nsinga" - Eddy Kenzo

To the best of my knowledge, Eddy Kenzo is no relation to Eddie Kendricks. He could learn a thing or two about dress sense from him though.

  2. That's very kind of you. One of the good things about doing this for me as well is that people introduce you to all sort of things you would never know about otherwise. Until a week or so ago I had never heard any Ugandan pop music and now I'm mildly obsessed with it. So if there is anything you can recommend from Zambia, that would be great.
