C.J.B.

Band,
R&B/Soul and Electronic

CJB in 1984 at the release of their debut single "Tonight I Need Somebody", I was told the acronym stood of Cyril, John & Banji. The hit single that went gold within a few weeks of its release was written/produced Banzi Kubheka and enginereed by John Galanakis on Minc Music's Sound Rays label. In 1985 they released the album "Happy Birthday" mainly written by the duo also including the debut single.By that time they were in huge demand as concert performers. Their was a handsome man image, always neatly dressed with groomed hair.Cyril aka Napoleon was behind the keyboards and Neo the frontman belting tunes with his powerful raspy voice.This arrangement is common as also seen in bands like "Cheek To Cheek" and "Soul Brothers".Maybe i should mention that early in his career Cyril user the surname, Nkosi.
