Jamhuri Jazz - Shingo ya Upanga (Video version)

Jamhuri Jazz makaazi mjini Tanga kwa jina maarufu la wanyama wakali na kibao kilichowabamba wazee waliokuwapo enzi hizo hadi kutupa simulizi za burudani walizopitia.

Historia :

Bendi ya Jamhuri Jazz ilianza mwishoni mwa miaka ya 1950 huko Tanga, Tanzania, ingawa jina lake la awali lilikuwa Bendi ya Nyamwezi Jazz. Jina hili la awali lilionyesha kabila la Nyamwezi ambalo wanachama wengi au familia zao walikuwa wametoka huko Tabora kufanya kazi Tanga.

Uundaji wa ala za muziki za mapema za bendi hiyo ulikuwa rahisi kiasi, ukiwa na gitaa mbili tu za sanduku, banjo, na klarinet. Hata hivyo, kufikia katikati ya miaka ya 1950 au karibu 1966, serikali ya Tanzania iliamuru mabadiliko ya jina kutokana na wasiwasi kuhusu ukabila unaohusishwa na "Nyamwezi." Kwa hivyo, kikundi hicho kilikubali jina Jamhuri Jazz Band, huku "Jamhuri" ikiwa neno la Kiswahili likimaanisha "Jamhuri."

Bendi hiyo ilipata umaarufu kote nchini na ilikuwa kiungo muhimu katika ulimwengu wa muziki wa Afrika Mashariki, ikitumbuiza mara kwa mara Mombasa, Kenya, pamoja na Mkoa wa Tanga. Jamhuri Jazz ilichukua jukumu muhimu katika kuitangaza sauti ya Rumba ya Kongo kote Afrika Mashariki mwanzoni mwa miaka ya 1970.

Bendi hiyo ilikuwa na wanamuziki nguli tajwa mashuhuri kwa miaka mingi, wakiwemo wanandugu Wilson Peter Kinyonga na George Peter Kinyonga, ambao walijiunga na kikundi hicho mwishoni mwa miaka ya 1960 kama waimbaji, wapiga gitaa, na watunzi. Ndugu hawa baadaye waliondoka Jamhuri Jazz mnamo Desemba 1970 na kuunda Bendi ya Arusha Jazz, ambayo hatimaye ilibadilika na kuwa bendi yenye ushawishi mkubwa ya Afrika Mashariki, Simba Wanyika, kikundi kilichohusika na nyimbo nyingi katika ulimwengu wa muziki wa Kenya.

Bendi ya Jamhuri Jazz ilisimamiwa na kufadhiliwa na Joseph Bagabuje, na pia waliwashirikisha wanamuziki wengine muhimu kama John Kijiko.
