Imagine a punk-rock Waterboys doing a better job of balancing their rock and acoustic incarnations, and you'll have a fix on this raggle-taggle, fiddle-driven U.K. quintet --Jeff Bateman
Customer Reviews
My first gig
My mum likened them to the Oyster band back then this was the huge album,
my first gig my friend didnt turn up so my dad brought a ticket and came in with me everyone knew the words to the song and although just with my dad i tried to sing along to although i didnt know the words, it is worth pointing out the battle of the bean field a barbaric incident which both travellers and police wish had never happened, the room was a mass of fiddles and energy lyrically it is their best, i have always watched them in Plymouth, Ashburton and at Escot park because of this gig, tell the boys their ex rider Charlotte had a little blonde girl and got married i know her mum, buy this a classic
The Levellers' best album
The Levellers' best album, from back in 1991. When I was in the sixth form in 1994 we listened to this over and over again. Even now, I think that every song is superb. The non-vocal chorus of 'The Road' is iconic.
Bring back the good times.
When I was at college The Levellers were my favourite band in the whole world. They were the first band I ever saw live. I still remember The Fiddler flying down to the stage on a wire! Fantastic! In an effort to evoke the memory of the good old days, and realising that my original tape was well and truly past it, I jumped on-line and ordered myself another copy from good old Amazon. It's worth mentioning that a lot of albums don't sound half as good as you remember them. Ten or maybe Twelve (?) years on, this record still sounds great. Lyrics to songs i haven't heard in years leapt into my mouth and I was singing away at the top of my voice. If you haven't sung along to RiverFlow, either before or in a long time, your missing out on something truly joyous. Or how about Far From Home or Boatman? This record offers a lot more than just One Way.
