Die Kavalier is a pseudonym used by South African artist, Malcolm Watson, better known as the lead guitarist with The Rising Sons, a group formed in Pietermaritzburg in 1966 by Rod Kielly (lead vocals), Andy White (bass, ex Vampires), Gerard Hawes (keyboards, harmonica, guitar), Dave Campbell (drums) and Watson. The Rising Sons had a number of South African Top 20 hits, with "How do you do" going to #4 in 1972 and "Going down Jordan" to #7 in 1973. Malcolm Watson was born in Zambia, but emigrated to South Africa with his parents as a child. He started his first group, The Statesmen, while still in high school, thereafter joining The Rising Sons for 6 years. He then moved on to the short-lived group, The Music Corporation, before embarking on a solo career as Mally, subsequently releasing a number of 7” singles, including Louie Louie / There Are More Questions Than Answers (1973), This Is Sunshine Music / Show Me The Way (1974), and Beat Hard Young Man / Feel The Rhythm (as Mally Watson & Tom Vuma). In 1980 he decided to record an instrumental album using his favourite instrument, the guitar. As the album was targeted at the Afrikaans community, and as he was uncomfortable with speaking the language, this posed a problem came time for interviews and such. He then decided to wear a mask and to keep his identity a secret, and Die Kavalier was born. After 9 successful albums and many live appearances, his popularity began to wane, and he continued his career behind the scenes as a producer. His last live appearance was at the 1989 “Keep It Country Show” at the Rand Show in Johannesburg. This song is off the album “Die Kavalier Bring Hulde Aan Afrikaanse Treffers”, released in 1984.
