Field notes
The account traces the partnership of Johnny Rasheed and Shareef C from an 1983 duo through the band’s 1986 name change and shifting line-up. Its overview distinguishes the original 2001 CDr from the later digital album and notes a 1990 reunion show in Bonn. Source references appear throughout the history, while the navigation also separates live history and later projects from the main archive.
