"The Levellers"

Just wandering if anyone else here has heard of, heard or just know anything about them. I seem to be alone when it comes to them.

Does anyone know if Dr John is at the folk one?

Yeah it did Hoop :-D

I have heard of them, though not my cup of tea really. The best thing about them was that when I was at college (about 10 years ago) and the Indie scene was really beginning to pick up the Levellers were fairly popular amongst the unwashed masses. Around this time there also was a band called the Levellers 5, who were in my opinion much better, musical taste and all taken into consideration.

Unknowing fake indie's would buy Levellers 5 albums by mistake, confusing them with the similar named Levellers and then seek to offload these at a reduced price to those in the know.

Which was nice.

I know The Levellers are playing the Cambridge Folk Festival on the 27th if your interested in them (and live near Cambridge).

Lol Goaty :-D

I've got two of there albums, Levelling the Land and A Weapon Called the Word. The formers the better.
