Independent label: Fan Records Former Address:
101 Wardour Street London W.1. The Flames was a musical group from Durban in
South Africa. The band was originally formed in 1963 by guitarist Steve Fataar,
bassist Brother Fataar (real name Edries Fataar), drummer George Faber and
guitarist Eugene Champion. However, this line-up would only be together to
record a couple of songs. Ricky Fataar replaced George Faber as the band's
drummer around 1964 and Edries Fredericks replaced Eugene Champion as the
guitarist. Baby Duval briefly replaced Edries Fredericks in 1967, although it is
unclear whether he was involved in any of the recordings that were released.
Blondie Chaplin then replaced Baby Duval in 1967. This was to be the line-up
from 1967 until their demise as a group in 1970. Distributed By Keith Prowes,
Lugtons, And Taylor And Clyde Factors.
