This is the band that inspired me to start recording "non-commercial" South African music in the first place. I was lucky enough to be around when they were peaking in the late Seventies. I remember their performances as generating the kind of energy that only seems to come from flirting with a certain degree of chaos. Though this mayhem was amplified by badly organized gigs and crap sound systems, their youthful brilliance never failed to shine through. They also had a street political consciousness that was raw, angry and credible - never PC, but driven by the idea of what was right. And brave - who else would write a song with the word "kaffir" repeated many times in the chorus. Because of it "Brain Damage" is one of the most powerful protest songs ever to come out of South Africa.
