CD#292 #DeltaSpirit #HistoryFromBelow 2010 album improves on its predecessor but keeps the same sonic signature. Kind of a rootsy American rock soul sound that reminded me very much of UK group Grand Drive. The vocals are v similar. Top tunes/ 9/11, Ransom Man, Devil Knows You’re Dead. Good stuff.

If #CLRJames' famous question: “what do they know of cricket, who only cricket know?”, sought to challenge English cricket’s elitist historical orthodoxy, he failed in his task.

Looks good but #LeedsOtherPaper provided weekly reports from the front line - the villages as well as the picket lines - so is also worth consulting by anyone studying that period in Yorkshire. #LeedsLibraries have reference copies as do some uni libraries.
