84, when this was released. Walking around London hearing this being played as you past pubs and bars. Young and gay, with the threat of Aids just around the corner. So living, laughing and loving . Fighting for rights yet to be awarded.

My parents heard me playing this when I was a teenager in the 80's, and they immediately introduced me to Paul Robeson, who sang it decades before.

Almost 40 years old and still very fresh and wonderful to listen to.

The piano solo is sublime. Forty years on, I still can't get enough of it.

Great song, one of the most iconic tunes of the 1980s, it's hard to believe it's forty years old. Love the clarinet and piano solos.
