Former Orchestra Super Mazembe drummer Dodo Doris (Robert Kitenge) died on Friday evening at a Nairobi hospital. The 71-year-old Doris, who was the only surviving member of the Original Super Mazembe band “Bana Mushosho,” died after a long battle with chest complications. Doris interchanged on drums with Petit Musa, who later left Super Mazembe. Most of the original Super Mazembe came to Kenya in the early 1970s, courtesy of Zambian musician and producer Nashil Pichen Kazembe. The only other surviving former Super Mazembe band member is guitarist Loboko Passie, who is based in Mombasa.
