Well maybe not 'bangin' exactly
Those among you who do Rallys may have already seen 'STEViE - One Bloke, One Mandolin' around, as he spends most of his year in various fields and marquees entertaining crowd of bikers with his gravel voiced mandolinnery.
A few years ago he wrote a tune called 'Lest We Forget' about a wartime dispatch rider, and made it available for download with all monies raised going to the Royal British Legion. Then a couple of weeks ago he recorded another called 'All The Broken Soldiers', based on a tale of the Governments abandonment of those fucked up fighting for their country.
While I realise it may not be for all of you, what with you young whippersnappers and your 250bpm stuff , but I reckon they're worth a listen. I still find it hard to listen to Lest We Forget without a lump in my throat.
Anyway, they're both available for download at https://rblr.co.uk/STEViE.html along with a button to donate directly to the Legion. And for those of you around London, he'll be playing 'Lest' at the Remembrance Service at the Ace Cafe tomorrow morning.
Just thought I'd mention it.  ____________________ I was only doing what it said on my licence officer....
