REPOST Request and ADD ON: Finally organized all I had downloaded from other blogs for this band so may be some new things. Great USA band and here is what discogs says and remember some of these members also were in 17 Pygmies (I should have brought in to post Africa Korps as I had no idea they were a continuation of that band except spelling is at issue): Independent band from the Los Angeles formed in the early 1980s, still active. Formed by UCLA students Mark Erskine and Bruce Licher (the latter also responsible for the graphic design), who were joined by Philip Drucker (a.k.a. Jackson Del Rey), Jeff Long and Robert Loveless. The band was originally named Africa Corps but changed its name shortly before the release of their debut album in 1982. After several line-up changes, e.g. with Drucker leaving and later rejoining, creative tensions in the band led to a split in 1989-1990. The band reformed in 2002 for a reunion tour and has remained active with a different line-up than the original one. Members:
Mark Erskine : drums, percussion, bongos, vocals
Jackson Del Rey : vocals, guitar & percussion
Thom Fuhrmann : bass, trombone, keyboards, vocals
Greg Grunke : guitar, bass, dulcimer, vocals
Bruce Licher : guitar, bass, percussion, vocals
Jeff Long : vocals, bass & guitar
Robert Loveless : keyboards, bass, mandolin, percussion
Ethan Port : guitars, percussion, metal horn, voice
