"Patrick played guitar: his Telecaster, rather than his usual lap steel. We were reviewed by Colin Cross in the EEN on 20 January 1986 after we sent him a tape which was recorded by Chris Hawkins in his flat. I've no idea what became of the tape. We were strictly traditional English folk-rock, well into the Fairport/ Steeleye area. We did nine gigs, starting on 25 January 1986 at the Dial, and ending on 14 July 1986 at Norwich Arts Centre. We named the band Objat after a French town in the Correze, but that was a bit obscure so we changed it to The Levellers. The slightly more famous Levellers started in Brighton two years later."
