Saturday Johnny & Jimmy The Rat

Another classic Alistair Hulett release, this one from 1996. Joined by the inestimable skills of Dave Swarbrick, this is a mixture of highly political Hulett compositions, with a few traditional numbers for good measure. As ever, Hulett mines the rich musical and political heritage of Irish and Scottish folk traditions to come up with 11 songs of pure beauty, pathos, biting social commentary, and joy.
