You know he organized the whole boycott of South Africa and produced the Sun Ciry single etc. I knew PG had done Biko before all SVZ's anti apartheid efforts, but in the documentary he credits PG and that cut with waking him up to it, which I had never heard before.
So ultimately, it was PG and that wonderful PG3 LP that was responsible for ending apartheid, since he was the spark for the effort that made it all happen.

I love that album too. First cut to last, there is not one note wrong. It's just magnificent.

I remember SVZ being a force behind Sun City. Thanks for the heads-up.
My favorite song off that album is "I Don't Remember".
