Did the Umps and Dumps record anything other than 'The Moon's In A Fit' Before we get a list a zillion miles long, I'm aware of what each member has done. And, before we get a list ten zillion miles long I'm aware of what Kirkpatrick has done. I'm very young (a mere 32) so I wasn't around when the album was released. But, does anyone remember them performing the material live? Were any live recordings made? I think it's a special record. A real British mix of folk, marching music, trad jazz, music hall. It's all in there. Ta Butler |

16 Sep 11 - 07:49 AM (#3224131) Subject: RE: Umps and Dumps From: GUEST I certainly heard them play and danced at some of their ceilidhs (mid 70s). They were something of an inspiration for a band I formed at the time, which also had a banjo player working a kick drum and hi-hat, and a hammered dulcimer. One of my favourite bands at the time, along with Flowers and Frolics. |
