12 Banco de Gaia - by Pale Trash

12th in a series of 12 videos, from an audio casette of my Dad's kindly ripped to mp3 by Nedmund http://www.youtube.com/user/Nedmund

I actually know very little about Pale Trash.

In fact, the picture you see on all of the upcoming vids is what I feel is an accurate portrayal of the Casette cover [which was actually a piece of photocopied paper with a parking sign with a lunar landscape behind it.]

What happened was that my Dad lost the casette cover but we managed to keep a hold of the actual tape, complete with all the funky, percussive beats.

My Dad tells me that Pale Trash [if that is actually the band's name] was a South-African percussion band whom he found around Trafalgar Square, London, UK, around the Summer of either 1996 or 1997. The beats were so awesome that he had to buy their cassette. He says they were "moderately famous", as he remembers they were to perform at a club later that day.

Since we lost the Cassette cover, we also lost the actual track names.

So the track names may/may not be approximations. [Have no idea how I remembered "Banco de Gaia", but that's another story.]

This is why I need you, the YouTube community to piece together this musical mystery.

Thanks :)

NB. Sorry in advance if I'm breaking any copyright laws if any former Pale Trash members find this :)
