TBT Video of the day Ricky na Marafiki’s Dufa Mpararo

Ricky na Marafiki are without a doubt one of the most underrated band in the country.  Thankfully, this has not affected the simple and intriguing way they make their music.

 A classic example is my choice for TBT today. I first hear this song sometime in 2013 and just found out they had done the video this year in January. The easy mood of the song with the tempo and joyful guitar play takes one back to the golden oldies era.

This is a perfect backdrop for the story being told, the adventures of childhood especially the ‘Dufa mpararo’ which if you never engaged in you must have had a dull childhood. The video captures this aptly trailing a kid sent on an errand that get diverted by a friend to embark on a journey that sees them go through Eastlands hoods, Buruburu Jericho following the train tracks, playing bano, making toys etc.

All these with the perfect sound track, enjoy the video below and hopefully you travel down memory lane too.
