Dumbing Up was barely released
in the UK, World Party's label
Ensign had been swallowed up in
corporate games and the album
was released on the small
papillon label, Wallinger has
been hard at work remastering

World
Party has always channelled the
spirit of the late sixties and
early 70's and Dumbing Up is
certainly no exception, with a
very similar vibe to their
legendary second album Goodbye
Jumbo, Dumbing Up opens with
Another 1000 Years which is the
best friend of the Beatles song
Baby You're A Rich Man whilst
elsewhere there are echoes of
the Stones, Sly and Dylan.
