    God, that was a good night. Extremely snowy and cold. Sprung ballroom floor had us bouncing up and down.

    I was there.
    I remember the snow & how you couldn't drive all the way into Blackpool.
    Jeremy came out in just open SANDALS....seemingly unaware of the snow until he stepped in it!
    I was watching the playback in the truck outside that was dealing with the filming, right after the gig.

    Was mad on the Levellers in the 90s. Don't listen to them much these days and I really don't know why lol

      Have a good listen again to the music they have given us, over the decades.
      Once they are in your blood again you’ll wonder why you lost touch with the music.

    She's the maid of the river
    So beautiful plain
    As fresh as the country
    That gave her her name
    As crips as the snow
    And as swift as the rain
    he shone like the sun
    Before all of our games
    She shone like a jewel
    But her price was not gold
    She cried more than most
    When her story was told
    But her people were evil
    Left her barren and cold
    And her heart went to market
    Where her body was sold
    I said: 'Hey, hey won't you take me away
    Cos I can't see the point In the dawn of the day
    So many killers gonna take you away
    They'll leave nothing left except hatred'
    She's the goddess of love
    The goddess in green
    The goddess of all
    That I've ever seen
    The goddess of hope
    The goddess in brown
    The goddess of all
    That you've burned to the ground
    There's all kind of hatred
    Flows out of man's hands
    There's the hatred that strangles
    The throat of a man
    But the worst of all hatred
    Is that which is planned
    Against what we have
    In this goddess of land

    I wake up with this song in my mouth and mind. I think this song is about natural and who man uses her for thier ownership and benefits

      Great when we understand what going on and we can inform ourselves and others

    Anyone can choose to change their through parents and look at life for a different angle. You can think clearly about things take other people piont of view. Earth sun shine water give us everything in this world. Nature give and give we have not learned to appreciate who we live along side nature

    See I think only rich people can put pressure on others. What can I do apart from understand myself more clearly and other people more clearly

    They look like the type who smell of incense sticks and that hippie smell but what a band and what a song I love this tune I once sung it in prison and the lads loved it

      It was actually written by their mate Rev Hammer (a fine singer-songwriter in his own right).

      They smell like hard work and skills with the stench of decentness actually.
