CAPTION STORY: To most radio fans it appeared like a family reunion, a big one at that. Just the sight of seeing John Matinde and Kelvin Sifelani in one place brought memories of the good old days.
The former top Radio 3 presenters — John “The Boss” Matinde and Kelvin “Soul Supreme S” Sifelani were reunited at the weekend after close to three decades since they both left the Zimbabwean radio.
Both renowned for their presentations and eloquence on the airwaves, the two left indelible marks on local radio and inspired a whole generation of new voices on radio.

I remember John Matinde in late 70s the pioneer of Radio 3 the guy would takeover radio 1 frequencies by 8pm to 12midnight and create the most popular radio 3 with a rumba anthem. Aifayisa hondo.”
