Levellers Release Hope Street Billy Bragg Collaboration
Monday, 04 August 2014
Written by Jon Stickler
Levellers have today released their collaboration recording with troubadour, Billy Bragg.
Hope Street, a chart hit for Levellers back in 1995, has been re-interpreted by Billy and was re-recorded with the Levellers as his backing band at their Metway Studios in Brighton earlier this year.
The track has been released for sale digitally for 99p via iTunes, while a strictly limited edition 7" vinyl version also comes part of the signed deluxe 'Greatest Hits' album package which is available for pre-order. Hope Street is the second track in a series of collaborations to be released by the Levellers as part of their forthcoming 'Greatest Hits' album, released on September 27. Alongside Billy, Imelda May, Frank Turner and Bellowhead have all re-recorded new interpretations of classic Levellers songs.
Joined by the Selecter and She Makes War, Levellers hit the road to support the album in November.
