I've only ever had one gripe when it came to their music. With unquestionable talent and a ear for music one rarely finds with bands playing in pubs and biker venues, I find it difficult to fathom why they do not play more of their own music. Cedz has an incredible talent to take a cover version and mould and twist it in such a way, that you wonder how come you've never heard this before. And In that lies my complaint. Bikers have the inane ability to get stuck in a rut when it comes to rock music, and with this comes the unending requests for Creedence, Smokey and other boderline Country Rock songs, that have me twisting in my seat.
And although the guys handle it with with aplomb, it is not my cup of tea. Ask for some Santana, or a touch of Moore, and Cedric really comes to the fore, plucking the strings and displaying a voice that is in every way unique among S.A. musos. Stroke the ego's a bit and ask for original music, and again you're left amazed at the deep-felt lyrics, complimented by a strong voice and great guitar work.
Accompanied by a versatile Ian Brady on Base guitar and backup vocal, I'm left stymied why they don't just fuck the requests and play what they know best. Because that is what makes me come back every time.
Hope that wasn't whining too much. Always a Fan.
Cheers!
