Long ago during one to the soft pop discussions (my fav genre) several
people offered up groups to check out (David Bash, Stewart Mason and Michael
Barone are whom I remember listing some great artists). Anyway, I've saved
their recommendations and have  been hunting for many of these groups since
they were recommended (thank you). 
One Stewart recommended from the late 60's was South Africa's "Four Jacks
and a Jill".  I've landed their first disc "Master Jack" and I think it's
very nice. I see from AMG Stewart, you recommend the second, so I won't
bother even asking you about it (so, the hunt continues). 
Not from Stewart but also from AMG...
"Four Jacks & A Jill is one of few South African groups to score a Stateside
hit. Their folksy tale "Master Jack," made the Top 20, nesting at #18, June
8, 1968.  The members were Glenys Lynne (Jill), Clive Harding (bass),Til
Hanamann (guitar), Bruce Barks (guitar), and Tony Hughes (drums)." 

Huh?  Why point out Glenys was "Jill" !?  I mean,  THAT'S the least likely
thing I needed clarifying! 
 In fairness, I think it should read: 
 "The members were Glenys Lynne (Jill), Clive Harding (Jack), Til Hanamann
(Jack), Bruce Barks (Jack), and Tony Hughes (Jack)".
;)

My favorate lyrical moment on the album is..
During one song that is sung in their native language she suddenly
translates it into English. She sings/states... 
"In English this means:
 Go away my sweetheart, go away my love.
 My motorcar's got a flat tire, I can't fix it.
 That's that".

 Love it!
