Biltong & Potroast
Mention the name Biltong & Potroast to any person over the age of 30 and you will immediately get the reaction of either a smile or recognition of some sort or another. Do you remember Cyril Green’s “Whiwhty Guinea Whuneral” or Mel Miller’s Elephant gag “I’ve Been Sick You Know” or Len Davis’ “Gwavsh and Letsch” and the likes thereof?
It was a show formulated for TV in the earliest years of the Goggle Box and to this day still enjoys the unique distinct accolade by many, being the finest Standup Comedy show ever produced in this country. Audiences all over the country constantly ask for the program to be re-run.
On CD for the first time, that infamous show featuring Cy Sacks, Len Davis, Mel Miller, Noel Glover, Cyril Green and others, was captured on tape at a live performance, many years ago. The comedians were allowed the latitude to act and react to a spirited audience in the language not understood by Kings and Queens. Fortunately, the original tape was discovered and led to these discs being released containing some of the funniest stories ever told in South Africa and no doubt funny by any standards anywhere in the world to this day.
Disc One is the original recording, and Disc Two is the cleaned up version.
