Pied Pumkin - Plucking deVine: Best Of - New Sealed CD

14 track best of collection. If like me, you don't have a lot of time to play vinyl these days, you may also like me find this best of compilation of the Pumkin's 4 70's albums an absolute Joy! I remember when I got my copy a couple years back feeling overwhelmed with joy at the chance to listen to these awesome gems again! If you haven't had the pleasure of hearing the Pumkin in the past, this is an excellent place to start before picking up the original vinyl releases. Includes Fear Of Flying (Shari's best known song, later redone by her with the Hometown Band), I Believe, You Can Change The World, People I Love You & more. Squash 10072.

Featuring Shari Ulrich on violin & vocals, Rick Scott on dulcimer, vocals & much of the song writing & Joe Mock on guitar, vocals & song writing, The Pumpkin would have been right at home in 1960's San Francisco. Instead, they came at the the tail end of the Canadian progressive folk movement that also brought artists like Ian Tamblyn, Bruce Cockburn & David Wiffen. They combined a bit of the San Francisco hippy ethic & The UK silly folk ethic (Fairport Convention & friends) with some great song writing & playing (Shari is pretty much a virtuoso on violin), & a wonderful sense of humor. Throw in some tremendous harmonies and finally, add to that Rick's unique musical persona which could perhaps be described as being a bit similar to the Tubes Fee Waybill without Fee's dark side. What I can tell you is all 4 of their albums (especially the first 2 with Shari) were on my stereo constantly in the late 70's - mid 80's. If you're into well played, touching acoustic music with an innocence & great sense of humor, these all come highly recommended.
