Rummaging though stacks of photos and cuttings from those good old days,
and found a few of the good ones to really take us all back in time.
And a big thank you to all the photographers who contributed their shots of us!

At Mel, Mel and Julian's very first recording session at Gallo Studios, Johannesburg in 1964. 12 tracks recorded in 8 hours! No overdubs!

Durban's famous cartoonist Jock Leyden, drew this spot-on caricature for a very complimentary newspaper review.

In Durban, at the height of interest in Indian music the guys dabbled with instruments like the Sitar (Julian) and Tabla drums (Mel Miller), and Mel Green stuck to guitar.
