mjazzg Posted October 5, 2023 Report Share Posted October 5, 2023 Online sources including Wikipedia entry and Gilles Peterson showing Julian Bahula died earlier this week. I remember Jabula Spear, his band with Dudu Pukwana and appearances at Anti-Apartheid rallies. Recently I'd discovered his work with Malombo Jazz and Malombo Jazz Makers through some excellent reissues https://youtu.be/273tcKjo_FM?feature=shared Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adh1907 Posted October 5, 2023 Report Share Posted October 5, 2023 RIP, I haven’t heard much of him in London in recent years but I remember seeing Jabula a lot years back. I also attended a workshop run by him at the Islington Arts Factory, late 80s, early 90s where he was a very patient and inspiring tutor. I think he rehearsed a Dudu Pukwana tune with us.
