Bles Bridges mag gewild wees in ouetehuise en beklemmende voorstede, maar nie in die Kaap nie, waar kunstenaars soos Oom Hansie, Funny Carp en Groove Station waarskynlik al van die gewildste Afrikaanse kunstenaars was.
As 'n mens kyk watter Afrikaanse musiek vandag gewild is, het jy genoeg rede om ernstige bedenkinge te hê oor moontlike aansprake op "tydloosheid", "grootsheid" en "onvergeetliklheid".
Populariteit word gemeet aan verkope, het Bles Bridges altyd in onderhoude gesê, en dit is, helaas, eenhonderd en elf persent korrek.

The three LPs were subsequently pressed and released in S.A. For an assortment of reasons, of the three, "Cold Fact" achieved the most success and sold like the proverbial bushfire.
It nestled in the record collections of practically every home that already had "Abbey Road", "Bridge over Troubled Water", "Aqualung", "Leonard Cohen's Greatest Hits" and "Harvest".
It featured a nasal Hispanic-American singing sweet but vitriolic folk-songs about "DRUCKS", unrequited lust and big city misery; but everyone around here knew all the words and would sing along without having any idea what Rodriguez was really moaning about.
