[1] The Blues Broers' was formed by members of three other bands, the Flaming Firestones, All Night Radio and Black Frost, in early 1990, with the horn players joining in 1996 for their 4th album Been Around.
They had gained attraction with their heavy gig-playing schedule, but did not impress any South African record labels.
At this point, the band had been getting worldwide attention, including a page from the Los Angeles Times, whose reporter said that they were a very visual group.
The album had 14 cuts, removing a tribute to Stevie Ray Vaughan.
This album with their usual gigging had boosted their ticket sales, along with numerous festival appearances.
