Levelling the Land is a timeless album.
Which is credit to #TheLevellers an a damning indictment of where society is 30 years on -
The year is not 1991, but I think we should all heed the warnings in this song. They are as applicable today as when it was written.

From the 90s definitely #BillyBragg and #TheLevellers and #SteveEarl -
So Feierabend, paar Stündchen noch ausruhen, dann Themenabend englischer Bürgerkrieg unter Oliver Cromwell. Und ganz nebenbei noch 25 Jahre Weihnachtskonzert in Kölle.

tonight i had a blast from the past by the acoustic set of #DanDonnelly & #JonSevink from #TheLevellers.
it was very emotional because so many memories got triggered.you know, the levellers for me and my traveller community back in the 90s was like what crass is for my punk community.
back then, i was squatting for hundreds of new age travellers who fled thatcher after the #BattleOfTheBeanfield & came to my city in NL where i was heavily involved in the squatting scene. they were traumatised & looking for shelter, work & community.
we listened and played levellers songs all the time, we went to a gig once in a convoy of 5-6 vehicles, & went completely mental at the gig. i think for them, the music was helping them deal with the trauma they went through in england, & then in NL, cause we were facing diabolical living conditions too.
i didn't hear these songs for 30 yrs, and now i got blown away by everything i associate with it.
how powerful #music is.#RIP everyone who didn't make it, i know many who knew me then are likely dead now. but if you read this & remember a punk called gif, (you'll recognise my profile pic) get in touch 🖤

Had a great night watching the Levellers on Saturday, they knocked it out the park and was a great set list too.

The Wolves are going to Liverpool to watch The Levellers tonight. Anyone else going? Got a favourite song? We're interested to see how many Levellers fans are on here.

Ich bin kein ausgesprochener Fan von The Levellers, gerade die jüngeren Sachen sagen mir nicht mehr zu, aber es ist nach knapp 10 Jahren mal wieder eine willkommene Abwechslung, #thelevellers im Palladium zu sehen. Karten habe ich eh schon lange.

#Lyrics to Liberty Song by #TheLevellers
There's one too many, two too many holes
Getting bigger in the garden wall
And the people looking in are getting busy, they're getting bad
They're trying to suss it all
They're trying to get to me, to take my libertyGot to go go, get out of here, away-way, you don't want me here
Got to go go, get out of here, go home
I said this means nothing to me
The way we were is the way I wanna be
This means nothing to me
The way we were is the way I wanna beThey're sending in the elite, complete with guns
To advertise the way to go
Faxing through the fax to make it clear
That they're the ones who know
They're trying to get to me, to take my libertyGot to go go, get out of here, away-way, you don't want me here
Got to go go, get out of here, go home
I said this means nothing to me
The way we were is the way I wanna be
This means nothing to me
The way we were is the way I wanna be -

"Burn America Burn" - #TheLevellers
There's a shooter in the school, get your fuckin' heads down
Or I'll blow them clean off you luckless fools
The cracked windows break, start crashing
The alarms sound a warning, as we all fallBurn America burn (blow yourself away)
Burn America burn
Burn America burn (blow yourself away)
Burn America burnStun grenades flash, as we are dropping
Blood on the blackboard spells out truth
The SWAT teams are crawling with stealth
And the gunman has just one round left, and he's saved it for himselfBurn America burn (blow yourself away)
Burn America burn
Burn America burn (blow yourself away)
Burn America burnThe cops are fighting, and some are on the run
There's a blood-bath in the school, and I've only just begun
The sun is shining, the days just begun
Start praying to your gods 'cause I'm still having fun
I never looked like a monster
In the mirror you just saw yourself
Did you notice me at the prom-dance
So much like you
That you never stood a chanceBurn America burn (blow yourself away)
Burn America burn
Burn America burn (blow yourself away)

To nobody's surprise, The Levellers are active on Bandcamp. Although "The Levellers" album isn't available, the song "This garden" is on their greatest hits.

#RiseUp the call on #JukeboxFridayNight. Songs of protest and rebellion.
Back to my younger days for The Levellers. "This garden" is a sharp critique of suburbia, from their eponymous 1993 album.
The band's rise to become folk heroes was without the support of tastemakers like the NME and Q magazine. We never needed Steve Lurpack or Danny Kelley to tell us what was good; the fashion police never knew anything.

A TUNE FOR OUR TIMES by the #GaslightTroubadours and members of #TheLevellers All proceeds go to support hungry and homeless people via #StPetrocks charity based in Exeter. https://stpetrocks.org.uk. Was also very sorry to hear of the Gaslights' decision to quit making music. But this tune makes for a trenchant ending... https://gaslighttroubadours.bandcamp.com/track/guilty-as-charged-feat-fey-pink-the-levellers

@Authenticdmckee I cannot recommend #newmodelarmy enough. Start at the beginning and delve in. They are unique and brought a more folk feel in later in for a bit. Simply amazing through and through. Also #thelevellers if you’re looking for the punk folk feel. The first two albums blew me away. And toss in a health dose of #crass. Not folk, but forever relevant and essential.
