Latin Quarter - Nomzamo (One People One Cause) (Arista)

I don't give a damn about how worthy this lot are. The tune is putrid, and I baulk at political pontificating. Far too insipid to do anything for the cause, however admirable. (Nancy Culp, Record Mirror, April 11, 1987)

I've heard this a number of times and it's definitely difficult to get into. South Africa's obviously an in-thing to write about but Latin Quarter always manage to come up with interesting songs in their own right. It won't get played on every radio show, but when you hear it you'll definitely be turning up the volume button and will want to hear it again. Possibly a minor hit. (Simon Mayo, No 1, April 11, 1987)
