"A band that defied categories, defied expectations, and who were completely timeless and peerless"

Leigh Jones' recent piece for the Quietus may say very little indeed about its purported subject (the new Datblygu anthology Terfysgiaith 1982-2022) but it nevertheless serves a useful function as a primer on the place of both David Edwards and the band in the development of Welsh popular music - and as a critical commentary on the prominence of Dafydd Iwan in the wake of the World Cup and 'Yma O Hyd'.
