No idea, but "Liege and Lief" and "Unhalfbricking" are two of the best albums ever.

Agreed. Most opinion is that Lieg and Lief is the masterpiece. But, I prefer Unhalfbricking - A Sailor's Life. That's what started it all.

Great group, no idea what happened to its members though.

All of them went on to great things, not least Richard Thompson. Judy Dyble still records and appears with the band now and again. Shaun Frater was the first drummer. We never hear of him.

Pete Best has just resurged with an album putting the record straight (I urge all Beatles' fans to buy Pete's CD). Shaun Frater could do the same.
