Rikki Ililonga is a psychedelic rock musician who gained prominence as a member of the influential "Zamrock" band Musi-O-Tunya in the 1970's. While touring with Musi-O-Tunya, Ililonga rose to fame within the boundaries of his homeland, and soon branched out as a solo artist. Ililonga’s solo work shows an even more powerful, and at times more subdued side. The range is everything from Bob Dylan-esque folk tunes to fuzzy, psych rock tracks- no less impressive than anything Jimi Hendrix cranked out in his heyday. The songs, mostly in English, also contain passages in Silozi, Chinyanja and Ichibemba. In a country still emerging from the pressure of colonialism, this was an important proclamation of Zambian identity in the face of the once commonplace denigration of all things African.
