Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * *

Everybody starts somewhere, the great and the good, the seemingly indestructible icons of stage, cinema and music and everyday walk of life. Everybody has a back story, the fledgling beginnings which in time show how, in this case the group of musicians, took themselves on from humble beginnings and with perspiration, dogged determination and age can be sensational. Such is the proposition facing A Lovely War and the quirky, certainly enjoyable E.P. Ezra.
