MFH - First Move



Cassette, C46
Label : YHR Tapes, UK, 1980
Ripped by Andrew Via


Followers of that blog probably know or have heard about english duo Pump. Last year, a few months after one member of the duo (Andrew Cox) passed away, their second album, Sombrero Fallout, was finally released, 17 years after it was recorded ! To complete that re-discovery, Forced Nostalgia has just re-released the excellent first Pump album, The Decoration Of The Duma Continues, that will be soon available on CD for the very first time...
I thought that was the right time to help discover their earlier work. Before Pump, Andrew Cox and David Elliott were playing as MFH and were running the YHR Tapes label. Andrew Via was kind enough to rip four tapes of that label that I'm gonna post now. Let's begin with "First Move", the very first tape of both MFH and YHR Tapes.
