To help promote their upcoming extensive anthology the Levellers have issued a new video clip featuring the legendary Billy Bragg.
The atmospheric, sepia toned clip features the musicians in the studio, performing their new collaboration – a re-recording of the Levellers 1995 hit ‘Hope Street’. The collaboration is one of four new songs from the upcoming greatest hits set, the other new tracks featuring vocals and musical input from Imelda May, Bellowhead and Frank Turner.
As every music fan is aware by now, Record Store Day is held every April supposedly to encourage music buyers to visit their local independent store. In practice, this is a great idea – but the reality often means frustration for many. For every fan who seeks that special edition issued to mark the occasion, the event is often spoilt by chancers and dealers buying stuff up to hock on ebay later in the day. In some cases, these items appear on the world-famous internet auction site hours before the stores open, hours before the event has even begun, leading to the question of how many stores are even playing by the rules.
