"i have been searching this title on cd for many years. as this is a south african film, one would think that the soundtrack would be available here in south africa unfortunately it is not. on the south african version of the soundtrack on lp the title "om en om die braaivleis vuur" appears but not on this cd version. i was quite suprised to find the titlle "boom chick polka". it was one of two titles recorded in the afrikaans language, however it remains a good buy for all those jim reeves fans out there."
Jim Reeves in Africa

"While Jim Reeves was a well-known singer in America, both country and pop, he was a HUGE star in South Africa. When he toured there with other country stars, he was asked to make this movie. While the movie itself is short on production values, it is entertaining. Jim acquitted himself well as an actor. The most interesting part is in the extras. Jim had released an entire album in the Afrikaans language. For Jim Reeves fans, this alone is worth the price of the DVD."
