Fisherman's Walk bandstands were attracting ever greater crowds, and the repertoire was increased significantly from Bandmaster Mountain's 50 to over 114 items by 1961. Band songs and timbrel displays were now regularly featured and attractive glossy brochures were produced to include details of band history and personnel. Each programme concluded with the benedictory song Oh how good to trust my heavenly father.
