Cultural and historical factors need to be taken into consideration.
The legacy of the band and (at least two of the band's members) should be acknowledged too.
This was a band of 'coloured' musicians making music at the height of Apartheid and - as with countless other bands the world over - were completely influenced by the BeadleZ (and the BBs)...
In a way Carl Wilson's recruitment of Chaplin and Fataar prevented The Flames from developing into a more interesting band.
