In 2003 this concert at the Baxter Theatre in Cape Town was captured on film and is now being released on DVD for the first time in its entirety. The concert is a jaw dropping celebration of eccentric and long forgotten guitar, ramkie and rural singing styles. Held together by David's typically wry and insightful narration and a brace of new songs inspired by his travels through South Africa's outback.

The show features the amazing abilities of teaspoon slide guitarist, Hannes Coetzee and the eccentric one-handed guitar style of Tokas Lodewyk. Violinists Dawid van Rooi and Jan Willems perform the !Khapara music on their homemade instruments. Singing plaintiff songs from the Karoo are the Mouers family with Siena Mouers on her uniquely tuned guitar and her brother Koos Lof on his upside down piano accordian.

Here is a rare opportunity to hear the music that is fast disappearing from the landscape by the original musicians. Siena Mouers, Jan Mouers, Koos Lof, Helena Nuwegeld, Dawid van Rooi and Jan Willems have all died since the recording of this show. Now for the first time one of these legendary concerts is being made available to the public and also the first time that David Kramer’s performance of songs he wrote especially for the production is captured on DVD.

David is joined on stage by his band's longtime lead guitar virtuoso Gammie Lakay, bass guitarist Howard Links and Danny Petersen on drums.
