Clout was a South African rock group formed in Johannesburg in 1977, best known for their hit single, "Substitute". Originally all-female, the group later included some male musicians, who had played as session musicians on "Substitute".

Clout was a South African band that gained international recognition in the late 1970s. They are perhaps best known for their cover of the song “Substitute,” originally by the Righteous Brothers. Clout’s version of “Substitute” became a hit in several countries, including the United Kingdom, where it reached number 2 in the charts.

The harmonizing lead singers make for an interesting sound, the Clout Sound. There are many fine pop-rock songs on this Greatest Hits package and who knows which song you’ll be humming later — and you will have one find a home in your mind.
