Hanepoot Big Band -- South African Jazz Here's what the press had to say about it: Recorded live at the Nassau Centre in Cape Town, The Hanepoot Big Band’s debut album is a beautiful piece of new-style jazz musicianship. Every tune is thought out and prepared, but it isn’t explicit; and it isn’t laboured. It’s perfect. Jazz trombonist Jannie “Hanepoot†van Tonder’s romantic revolutionary spirit tears through every note. Oh, and the band as a unit is remarkable. Best tracks? Salt & Vinegar, Blue Prints and Rio de Quesos.
