Frumpy - all will be changed (1970)

Um bom conselho seria ouvir ao menos um dos álbuns do Frumpy, uma banda já comentada e descrita aqui no blog, todos já sabem também o quanto admiro o trabalho de seus integrantes seja no Frumpy, Atlantis ou separados, sempre juntos de alguma forma. Vou pastar todos os álbuns da banda que tenho!!

O texto abaixo ilustra o que digo em inglês e foi retirado do site progarchive.

The four musicians who formed FRUMPY were all members of Irishman O' Brian-Docker's folkband The City Preachers, which he founded in Hamburg in 1965. The City Preachers played an excellent blend of American and British folk music and had, sometimes, over a dozen people on stage.

Discontent with singer Dagmar Krause, drummer Carsten Bohn left the City Preachers in November 1969 and took singer Inga Rumpf, French keyboarder Jean-Jacques Kravetz and guitarist Karl-Heinz Schott with him to form FRUMPY. In spring of 1970, FRUMPY started a successful tour of France.

The same year, they went on a 50 concert tour with SPOOKY TOOTH, and played with YES, HUMBLE PIE and RENAISSANCE. In autumn of 1970, FRUMPY released the first album "All Will Be Changed" which contained only own material with the exception of a Richie Havens cover. The Following year guitarist Rainer Baumann joined FRUMPY and played on the bands second LP "Frumpy 2", which was rapped in a round plastic bag.

In Germany, the album was well received and proved that rock music from Germany could live up to international standard. Their music combines jazz, soul and eastern elements with the keyboards as the most important instrument. FRUMPY topped the Musik Express poll as the most popular German rock group of the year and the newspaper FAZ assisted singer Inga Rumpf to be "the country's biggest individual talent", but a tour of England with MOTT THE HOOPLE failed to attract popularity in Britain. Musical differences with keyboarder Kravetz caused him to leave FRUMPY, in spring 1972, to record a solo Lp with Inga Rumpf singing one song.

But he returned for the recording sessions of FRUMPY's third LP "By The Way". But FRUMPY disbanded after a farewell concert on June 26, 1972. Inga Rumpf, Jean-Jacques Kravetz and Karl-Heinz Schott formed ATLANTIS.

The year 1990 saw a FRUMPY reunio and a new LP "Now!".

Possivelmente pelo fato da sua ótima aparência, carisma e sensualidade, quando o assunto é Frumpy, só se fala na Inga(também uma ótima letrista). Não obstante, os músicos do grupo são ótimos ecompõe muito bem também. O casamento de guitarra com orgão é perfeito! Meu "By the Way" é vinil nacional, da vertigo, com aquele selo antigão. O postado eu tenho em mp3. Abraços e beijos, Márcia

Acho que a Inga realmente é a alma do Frumpy e do Atlantis, mas evidentemente, não podemos de dar credito aos musicos.
