Bles Bridges - Ring of ice

South African artist born as Lawrence John Gabriel Bridges on 22 July 1947, Viljoensdrif, Free State, and died on 24 March 2000 in a car accident. He became known as “Bles” as his Irish grandfather called him this (meaning "bald" in Afrikaans), due to his very thin hair from an early age.
He released his first album, “Onbekende Weermagman” in 1982, but his professional career really took off in 1984 with the release of his second album, Bles, which went gold in under a month (25,000 copies). He went on to release many more albums, most of which went platinum. At the time of his death he had sold more than two and a half million albums (records and CDs). In his later career he began alternating between Afrikaans and English language albums, to great acclaim. His biggest hit was "Ruiter van die Windjie" which was released in 1986.
His career highlight was when he performed to a sold-out Superbowl at Sun City, five times on one weekend (14 and 15 May 1987), becoming the first and only artist to do so. He actually managed to draw a bigger crowd than Frank Sinatra when he opened the Superbowl in 1982.
This song is from the album “The Devil And The Song” released in 1989. It is the soundtrack to a film in which Bles starred.
