Right, 'tis a long shot but....
Way back in the 80's, I heard a 'rock' track about a roman soldier on hadrians wall. The lyrics are based on Audens Roman Wall Blues, - It could be the Sensational Alex Harvey Band (its NOT the Alex Harvey version or the Skyclad version on last.fm) but its more likely some NWOBHM cover. Any Ideas?
Over the heather the wet wind blows
Lice in my tunic, a cold in my nose
The rain comes falling out of the sky
I'm a soldier on the wall and I don't know why
The mist is lying on a hard grey stone
My woman is gone, and I'm sleepin' all alone
There's somebody else hangin' 'round her place
I don't like him, I don't like his face!
I saw a Christian worshipping a fish
There would be no kissin' If he had his wish
She gave me a ring, I gambled it away
And I want my woman, and I want my pay
When I'm old, and I only got one eye
There'll be no more soldiering, just lookin' at the sky
I'm a soldier on the wall, I'm a soldier on the wall,
A soldier on the wall, and I don't know why!
Over the heather the wet wind blows
Lice in my tunic, and a cold in my nose
The rain comes falling out of the sky
I'm a soldier on the wall and I don't know why
The mist keeps lying on a hard grey stone
My woman is gone, and I'm sleepin' all alone
There's somebody else hangin' 'round her place
I don't like him, I don't like his face!

I got a few other long lost tracks recently - the kind of thing you have on tape from taping the Friday Rock Show, or Radio Wales Rock Show (fu*king brilliant, with Richard Reece, absolutely top notch rock show) and never knew the band... I got Angel - Cast the First Stone, Verity - Stay With me Baby, Waren Zeavon The Envoy and just last week, Kim Mitchel - Go for A Soda.
Still on the look out for any Glasgow or Garrison stuff (NWOBHM from the 80's)
Any metlerz out there who can help?
P.S. i'm also after a copy of Andy Pandymoniums Lamb Kebab.... anyone?Last edited by legendgamesmaster; 29 September 2008, 21:25.If you're gonna be a bear... be a Grizzly.
