Just finished listening to it and a damn fine album it is too! I've seen
them a few times and although they can't match up to the Oils, they put a
good show. Lots of jumping around like a looney was to be had!

According to my sister (who's an ardent Levellers fan), the oils are very
good friends of theirs so there's an extra reason to like 'em!

off back into lurker land now.
