Bio
Johannes "Spokes" Mashiyane was a renowned pennywhistle artist from the 1950s-1970s. He blended and bent notes with the instrument's simplicity, gaining international recognition in the 1960s. He played with Bud Shank, performed at the Newport Folk Festival, and influenced the music of Zimbabwe. In 1989, the South African band Mango Groove released Special Star as a tribute to him after his passing to liver disease in 1972.
