Saw them at Rochester Sweeps Fest a few years back and the 5-piece harmony (I'm sure it was 5 then although I see on some old websites they are stated to be four, but I had been drinking) wall of sound was surely fun. |

I come across Pete Luscombe from time to time and very occasionaly see John Bartlet. I am hoping that they will both be at Tenterden later this year. Dave |

26 Jul 06 - 03:12 PM (#1793857) Subject: RE: Are Ramskyte still going? From: GUEST,Annie (Mrs. Brian Ingham) So far as I'm aware they haven't done any gigs since sometime before Brian died. As to what happens now that is an unknown at present but I'll make Peter, John & John aware that folk are asking and hopefully they'll subsequently post something here. There have only ever been 4 of them (not 5 - ? were you seeing double then?) |

27 Jul 06 - 06:44 AM (#1794392) Subject: RE: Are Ramskyte still going? From: GUEST,GUEST,Pete Hi All, Sorry to say, but Ramskyte are effectively defunct since (although not 100% because of) Brian's demise. John Bartlett & I are now performing as a duo called 'Wholehearted' - at Folk Clubs in the South only so far, but we hope to get a bit further afield next year. See some of you at Sidmouth/Broadstairs/Tenterden I hope. Pete Luscombe. |
