Tributes have been pouring in from music lovers following the death of Mac Tontoh of Ghana's legendary Afro-Rock band Osibisa.
He was one of the composers of the BBC Network Africa theme, Uhuru.
The trumpet maestro suffered a stroke earlier this year and although he appeared to be recovering, he passed away aged 69 on Monday night at a hospital in Accra.
BBC Network Africa's David Amanor has been remembering Mac Tontoh with some musicians and fans in Ghana.
