Piet Botha & Jack Hammer - Live at The Nile 2xCD

A slice of history from this Afrikaans rocker and his longstanding musical compatriots, this is a batch of songs recorded live in Pretoria last year. It features 24 of the band's trademark compositions sung in English and Afrikaans and it's a warts-and-all affair with the pleasing raw feel of a live gig.

There's the boogie blues element, the Dire Straits influence, as well as regular straight-ahead rock.

The idea here is personal enjoyment for the musicians, and this release isn't aimed at garnering huge commercial success. Taken from a two hour set, this double CD has been released as a limited edition. - Contemporary IOL press release.
