The Flames

The Flames were a South African musical group formed in 1962, with their best-known lineup consisting of guitarists and vocalists Steve Fataar and Blondie Chaplin, bassist Edries 'Brother' Fataar, and drummer Ricky Fataar. Considered one of the most influential and unique bands of 1960s South Africa, they stood out with their blend of soul and rock music, Indian background, and material that was centered around albums and covers rather than singles and original songs. Their 1968 cover of The Impressions' 'For Your Precious Love' reached #1 on the domestic charts and is their most popular song.
