Extremely talented, the unassuming Super Star mukoma Jonah always distinguished himself as the best lead guitarist Zimbabwe ever produced with Ashton Sugar Chiweshe in tow . Noone has ever succeeded in mimicking the lead riffs from the Legend. Yet he was so accessible, humble and friendly freely mixed with audiences during Show breaks
It appears lady luck didnt smile at him only. Mukanya appears to have been Jonah Sithole's student. Any Mukanya listener can identify the Jonah Sithole beat in every of Mukanya's song. Jonah could have easily split the Chimurenga music market with Mukanya. With equal managers, Sithole would take above 50% of the market all variables being equal.
It's an assumption. Thomas is in a class of his own. Jonathan was good with his guitar and contributed immensely towards the Chimurenga genre. He was instrumental in the electrification of the mbira
@@pietrocambiaso2156 meaning, without Jonah creating the "mbira" style on guitar, neither of them would have been anything. jonah changed the history of zim music and is not given the credit he deserved
Very little has been spoken of JONAH but was the best lead guitarist during the 70s and early 80s.It is said by those close to both Thomas and Jonah that he is the one who brought the mbira guitar to Thomas.Thomas then was into rock until he played with JONAH.
