Early Sunday morning the country was shocked and saddened to hear of the death of Taliep Peterson, internationally know musician, singer, songwriter, playwright and producer. He was found murdered at his Athlone home. Saddened more so is my friend Charlee, co-editor of this site, who for years had been close friend of the Petersen family. In Charlee's own words, often taliep would say to me and to others that i was like a younger brother to him, and even though I never told him or anyone else that he was like an older brother to me - today i would have to say that he was my bra - when i needed a favour he was there - when i was in trouble - he would sort it for me. He took me from the ground - today i feel very honoured, for the past ten years, to have recorded some of Cape Town’s best music with him. What I am, what I am still to achieve - as a recordist - i owe to my BraOur condolences go out the Petersen family
