The Shake Spears arrived in Belgium in December 1964 from South Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe). Before that happened they were successful in their own country, playing as the Dynamics. In 1963 they established their own night club The Club Dynamique, which quickly became the favourite haunt of television and theatrical personalities. At this time fans, friends and well-wishers advised the group that the rest of the world was entitled to an opportunity to enjoy their musical skills, too. «Summertime and the living is easy fish are jumping and the cotton is high»; «Baby I'm begging please and I'm down here on my knees». I am delighted with the Shake Spears - old romantics present old time romantic rock and rolls that sound so deliciously antique now. «Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues». Love and music are a good cure.
