After 25 years, the mighty Home Service return with a new live album taken from a recently-discovered 1986 tape. For many fans, the near legendary live Home Service shows were the high-point of British folk-rock. This remarkable recording captures the band at the height of their powers. With trumpeter Paul Archibald replacing the late Howard Evans, the band are reforming for a series of high profile festival appearances (and perhaps some new recording). Other members include: Jonathan Davie (electric bass), Howard Evans (trumpet), Andy Findon (saxophone, clarinet, flute), Michael Gregory (drums, percussion), Steve King (keyboards), John Tams (lead vocals, guitar), Graeme Taylor (lead guitar, vocals), Roger Williams and (trombone).

Originally released in 1985 on Coda Records and reissued in 1998 on Fledg'ling, this was the second full-length by British rock/folk/big band greats, Home Service. This is an example of their fine soundtrack work from the Royal National Theatre cycle of Mystery Plays, with a special guest appearance from Linda Thompson. Captured on this disc are some remarkable performances from John Tams and Bill Caddick -- two leading lights of the British folk scene. Carefully remastered from the original tapes.
