Tony Fonoti - the best! overheard his conversation while working at Orakei marae - having a tea break - said he was strting up another band - guess he never did! Uncle FRED Karaka brilliant! Uncle George Tumahai - churr! R.I.P! Not sure if Fred the drummer -Willie Hona etc - Tama's still alive last saw him heard of him at a neighbor's house party in Titirangi!
The first successful local reggae band. Paved the way for modern kiwi reggae artists like Katchafire, Sons of Zion, 1814. In fact one of the best current kiwi reggae acts (House of Shem) is headed by Herbs ex percussionist Karl Perkins and his sons. I remember going to spacies in the early 80s hearing this blasting in the video parlour while trying to conquer Pac Man. Much respect.
