I'm a huge fan of Red London ca. their more "rock" years ("Tumbling Dice", "Last Orders", "Look back..." and "Outlaws" ).Not that I have anything against either the earlier or later stuff, I just prefer the mainstream sound of those records. Which brings me to the question: Does anyone on this board think a truly leftist band can infiltrate mainstream radio, or does the inevitable watering down of the message defeat the whole purpose? I know Billy Bragg, The Clash and a few others all gave it a good try...thoughts on this please and if anyone knows what became of Marty let me know 'cause I LOVE those RL albums from that period.
