This is ecaxlty what I was looking for. Thanks for writing!
Hello my friends!
Only last week I discovered the sad news about Martin Jenkins, such a great artist, with a fantastic mastery of (especially) mandolin … I saw him live in concert in Italy where he toured with Bert Jansch, about 33 years ago, it was an amazing experience…!
Now, I would also have a request for you, dear Freinds of Dando Shaft, please: on my knees, will it ever be posible to have the lyrics of your second album…?
So far, no CD reprint, no website, no blog, no fanzine have ever published them …
It’s no less than forty long years that I struggle to understand the words of at least 2 or 3 songs, which I SO MUCH wold love to play with my group…. Haven’t I waited enough…?
Wouldn’t the world be more beautified by this gift, after so much grandious music from you…?
Thank you, I hope that my desire will be satisfied

Thanks for your comments. With regard to Dando lyrics I’m sure i can help. In truth this is one of those tasks i started in the 80′s with the idea to make a cool illustrated set of lyrics using nice text layout etc. I have completed files of 5 or 6 somewhere? I am blessed/cursed with a head full of all the Dando lyrics plus all the other songs i’ve written. My wife extracts them into her little book of songs from time to time. Tell me what three and i will do my best to send them and end your quest. Maybe this will spur me to create the collection.
Best wishes

Hello! trought the kindness of a friend of mine i have download “Kingdom”, (in Italy it’s impossible to find), but there is one thing that i would like to know: a reissue in CD or LP format is available? And if the answer is yes, where i can find it?
Greetings from Pisa, Italy!

Thanks for the mail. At the moment it is not available other than as an MP3 download at http://www.raremusez.co.uk. I have one unplayed vinyl which i may transcribe to CD sometime. The original tapes are with a Mr Bulmer along with a whole trove of other acoustic gems. He has no interest in rereleasing at this time.

We had a lovely time there. Shadows crossed the moon.
