| Review

The Dennis brothers are a couple of ordinary good natured ou's, but put
them on a stage with a guitar in Arthur's hand, and a drum set in front of
Rudi (aka Pamela Anderson), add a bass guitar-playing Barry Steenkamp and
the occasional blast on the saxophone from Swart Gabriel and these good
natured ou's will teach you a bit about rocking.
Their second album 'Voortvlugtend' is a collection of fine rock tunes,
ranging from the carefree 'Datsun Stanza.1800.SSS 2-Tone CY 158563' {what a
title! - ed} that borrows heavily from the early Dire Straits sound,
through the bouncy Lion Sleeps Tonight cover of Valiant Swart's 'Sweet
Stellenganga' to the more serious and hard rocking 'Jannie Cocaine'. They
display a great maturity and are able to create memorable melodies with
astute Afrikaans lyrics about the ups and downs of life as white South
African youth.
Although somewhat calmer than their live act, the album has a rawness and
an edge to it that will keep the listener's attention throughout. This
second generation boererock group is certainly one to watch, and
'Voortvlugend' is definitely a CD to own.
