Bandronde

Evil

Deze Deense band stak de neus aan het venster rond dezelfde tijd dat Mercyful Fate furore maakte. Ze zouden nooit zo bekend worden als hun landgenoten maar hadden wél de coolste bandnaam. En de muziek was (en is) dik OK:

 
Sixto Rodriguez

Although Rodriguez remained relatively unknown in his home country, by the mid-1970s his albums were starting to gain significant airplay in Australia, Botswana, New Zealand, South Africa and Zimbabwe.

Despite his success abroad, Rodriguez's fame in South Africa had remained unknown to him until 1997 when his eldest daughter came across a website dedicated to him.[17] After contacting the website and learning of his fame in the country, Rodriguez went on his first South African tour, playing six concerts before thousands of fans. A documentary, Dead Men Don't Tour: Rodriguez in South Africa 1998, was screened on SABC TV in 2001.

In 2012, the Sundance Film Festival hosted the premiere of the documentary film Searching for Sugar Man, by Swedish director Malik Bendjelloul, detailing the efforts of two South African fans to see if his rumored death was true and, if not, to discover what had become of him.




 
Zwangere Guy uiteraard

Putain, putain, de Guy heeft la haine
Hij krijgt het schijt van die racisten en die politiciens
Putain, putain, d'er is niks zo bien
Dan te slagen op hun bakkes, dat is sûr et certain

Geweldig :love::love::love::love::love::love:
Die Sugarman docu is zo fucking awesome. Achteraf aan een Zuid Afrikaanse collega bevestiging gevraagd (die ook op dat eind jaren 90 concert aanwezig was), en zijn reactie was "Rodriguez? Yeah bigger than Dylan and the Beatles combined right?".
 
The Paul Butterfield Blues Band

Blues rock uit de jaren '60. Hieronder het nummer East-West van het gelijknamige album. Een instrumental van 13 minuten :love: .
