Fan Message from South Africa: Remembering the ’80s

After “Searching for Sugar Man” suddenly popped up on Netflix I watched it again for the third time I think – again taking me back to when I was a young student at UCT, Cape Town back in the early 80’s when your music was so much part of the backdrop to our student years in a troubled country. One memory I want to share was remembering a musician called Josh who played your songs perfectly at a popular student pub in Observatory Cape Town (+- 1984 – 1988) – he was so good and played your music so well, he could have been your clone – long forgotten musicians like him also really helped in keeping and spreading your music in SA – linked to your story I often wonder what happened to him over the years as I listen to your tracks.

Patrick, South Africa
