Dando Shaft was one of the most original bands of the early years of
England's progressive-rock.
Martin Jenkins on violin, Kevin Dempsey on guitar, Ted Kay on percussion,
Roger Bullen on bass and Dave Cooper were basically jazz musicians playing
English folk music. They dared do what John Martyn and Pentangle had only
hinted to.
An Evening With (Youngblood, 1970) was a tentative debut, but
Dando Shaft (Neon, 1971), with Polly Bolton on vocals,
showed the full extent of their innovation, crowned by
Lantaloon (RCA, 1972).
After breaking up, the band reunited for a mediocre
Kingdom (Rubber, 1977).
