He added: “We managed to buy cars and build homes from proceeds from selling the tapes among many other things.” The musician also complained that nowadays even live shows are not that viable because a lot of people want to get in free of charge and that according to him the industry is dying. He then sent a plea to Malawians to remember their musicians and support them. Lucius Banda has recorded 18 albums 'Thank You' being his latest which came out last year.
