He usually appears as an old man on a crutch or with a cane, wearing a broad-brimmed straw hat and smoking a pipe, or drinking sparkling water. The dog is sacred to him. Legba is syncretized with Saint Peter, Saint Lazarus, and Saint Anthony.

The whole enterprise falls down on a relentless over-reliance on tradition South African 'pop' music.

I never really took to its ambling Afro-Jazz meanderings.

It's like McLaren, after discovering South African jazz-funk, recognised that the really strong commercial hook was the nascent NYC, South Bronx hipperty-hopperty sound for UK and Euro audiences.

It's like, I say.

I'd put my favourite shirt on it.
