A lot people with great talents go unnoticed in the wider world. Not that it is their wish - mostly. Hammer (Andrew Peters, from the Eastern Cape) is one of them. He survives mostly by busking with his guitar and has a fine musicality by which he develops songs by ear and sings them with along with excellent (self-tought) guitar playing. He is often without a guitar and would beg to be able to buy another one. And that is how we met, some years ago. I proposed we play together. The energy of that was so good, that eventually I helped him to get together an album of our recordings. I sponsor copies so he can sell them wherever he goes. This album confirms our musical brotherhood and we hope you enjoy it as well - cracks and all! Music has brought him closer to normality, and me closer to the confounding realities of shack-life. Hear the result for yourself. (Andrew has since died of HIV Aids. The misery he ended in was heartbreaking. We have no choice but to work to better the lives of so many millions of South Africans) |
