Background notes
Archive material and source history
Walter De Buck came out of Ghent in the late 1970s. He formed a band that became known as De Haven Van Gent, named after the city's port. Their song "'t Haven Van Gent" arrived in 1986 and turned into a local anthem, tying the city's maritime past to its present.
His music often leaned on Flemish folk traditions while carrying a rock energy. Albums like "De Uitdager" from 1989 and "Gilwe" from 1992 followed, along with songs such as "'k Ben Al Zo Lang Op Weg Geweest" and "'t Vliegerke." The band's lineup included Piet De Volder on bass and Frans Van Der Meer on drums.
In 1993, De Buck faced charges for inciting violence after performing a song called "'t Zal Wel Gaan" at a political rally. The incident stirred debate about music and free speech. The band kept recording, putting out "De Troebadoer" in 2004.
