thanks for the reminder Rob (good to be back on your site & re-inspired)
PS. also for the reminder of Juluka - the lyrics roll with ease & the melody recalls growing up in Jo’burg during heavy times (juluka launched their 1st album at my parent’s club & Johnny Clegg signed it for me - our gentle gardner Michael from Zim was going back home & it was my parting gift to him ‘cos we used to belt out the songs with gusto & drive my mom mad - gr8 memory, thx fellow scatterling
Wow! Sensational! You are back! And a big wowzer is the Juluka connection. Holy macaroni Max.
