Legendary Zimbabwean jazz musician Oliver Mtukudzi was honored with a memorial service at the Johannesburg Theater today.

Dozens of well acclaimed South African artists came out in their numbers to pay homage to the artist. Ringo as well as Vusi  Mahlasela whom have recorded songs with Tuku as he was affectionately known were amongst the artists in attendance.

In attendance were also Oliver’s daughters.

The “Neria” hit-maker was remembered not only for his love for the guitar but also for the impact that he made both locally and internationally in the music industry.
The 66 year old died of diabetes and was laid to rest
