2013, This stand-out set recorded in 1985 as part of the LIVE FROM LONDON series, features Mama's Boys leather-studded version of Slade's ,,Mama Were All Crazee Now" as well as other classics including ,,Hard'n'Loud", ,,Don't Tell Mama" and ,,Needle In The Groove". Growing up in the lush greenery of County Fermanagh in Northern Ireland, the McManus brothers early surroundings couldn't be further from the hard rock, leather-clad environment their music was to take them. The three brothers, Pat, Tommy and John found early success playing traditional Irish music but soon turned to the dark side after becoming heavily influenced by the Celtic band Horslips. By the late 1970s Mama's Boys were officially formed and announced their arrival in some style as a support act for their heroes Horslips in 1979 and Hawkwind on their 1981 UK tour.
