The Levellers - Another Man’s Cause

Yea, definitely not in your category of fan mate, but recent listening to Tom Dunne has seen the new album grow on me and send me back to their earlier stuff.

I always liked Walters Trip myself

First band I ever saw live. Possibly the first song I ever saw a band perform live "oh Simon please come out to play…

Great tune, screams excitement, it was on a Tom Dunne greatest Irish music compilation back in the day, quite possibly the best compilation ever

According to that link it’s friends in time that’s on that CD, I’m almost certain it was 100 boys😕

Friends in time is epic as well. Perfect song really. But they ended up completely defined by it. Saw them loads of times all over Co cork as a young lad.

100 boys just rips right into it from the word go.

Simon Carmody was one mad bastard!

I definitely has that album too. Track list not as good as I remember tbh! Some great bands on it but probably would have picked a different song for pretty much all of them. Bar Whipping Boy maybe

Massively underrated band.

Although lately I get to hear there theme tune from Sean the sheep movie than anything else!
