Alan Kay distinguishes himself from the rest

This is probably because there are very few locals who can play the traditional instrument with galumph.Well, Alan Kay's new gospel album, Saved By The Grace, offers that difference.One aspect that will probably set the recently released piece apart from the rest is the tickling lead guitar, played by Boipuso Kgosimore and Coaster Sephekolo.

Kay is undoubtedly a talented vocalist who can easily compress a high-pitched note into a soft reverberating turner, but perhaps it is the rich instrumentation in his latest album that will have any listener keenly attentive. Producers Reuben 'Rhuu' Lekoeje and Tshepo Lesole have done a good job, fusing different sounds to produce a unique melody.The popping bass keyboard, coming in midrange, a tickling lead guitar in almost all the tracks, cluttered drums in the background all make for a melodious composition.
