One of the very finest folk / roots recordings of the 1980's. In the view of fROOTS "an essential purchase".

'Alright Jack' has been acknowledged as a classic of the English folk-rock genre and Home Service as "Britain's finest folk big band." The mighty ensemble unites a powerful rock-solid rhythm section, John Tams' remarkable lyrics and a brass section to make the walls of Jericho tremble. Add the neglected music of composer Percy Grainger and wild electric guitar and you have one of the finest British folk-roots albums of the 1980s.
