Bieng mindful

Lots of people believe that the world is corrupt ,so lets just go on with our lives or corrupt it farther more. I disagree. Imagine a drop in an ocean. you may think it's insignificant but it does create ripples.What if that drop was yours then mine and then someone and then everyone who cares like us. this reaction amounts to a single wave to a number of waves then a Tsunami.

We don't have to wait for one person to do something we all have wisdom and strength to support it. It nerver pays… Continue

Living the truth

As human kind we are afraid to be true to ourselves as individuals. Its worse when as multitudes. Lets make South Africa an example,almost nothing happens smoothly.Whether politically or just life for the ordinary person. And nothing will be smooth if the majority of the people are negative. We are so negative that we don't even see a good thing under our nose. Here I'm talking about GROUP KARMA. Here we are thinking that we are so ok.But everything which happens, we make sure that we… Continue

Sawubona Tlale,

great to meet you on our Sawubona platform again - after 11 years!!! -- It's absolutly great to get the former SAWUBONA band members back to the project.

How are you? - I met Eddi Mathiba years ago in Suttgart as they performed Gummboots at the Theatre House. It was a very hot summer in Germany and we invited Eddi and a Gummboots drummer for dinner at home. Because it was so hot, we decided to eat cold food. Eddie's comment: "Ah, that's really new: breakfast in the evening".

Great to meet you again. We are few days before CeBIT Fair in Hanover (do you remember 1998?) and I think we are on a good way with this project. We are really looking forward to work with you together!!!

Siyabonga for joining us and see you!

Best regards, Hardy

cd review

by Norman DarwenThe first four tracks encapsulate Arkansas-born Billy Jones. ...a wicked, raw, live version of Albert King's 'Personal Manager', 'my Hometown', a bleak, stark portrayal of the ghetto set to a busy but laid-back and bluesy musical commentary that epitomizes what some have defined as his "gangsta bluez" (...though it is perhaps even better on 'Ain't Good Lookin'), the rocking, rollicking, down-home, and subtly Howling Wolf inflected 'Blues Comes Callin'' and the bluesy/ reggae…See More
