Black Rebel Motorcycle Club Cover The Pogues For Dr. Martens

Continuing Dr. Martens 50th Anniversary celebrations the Black Rebel Motorcycle Club have covered The Pogues' classic 'Dirty Old Town'.

Robert Levon Been of the Black Rebel Motorcycle Club went straight for this classic Pogues song as soon as Dr. Martens asked him to cover a classic track for their 50th Anniversary.  The track feels as fresh as the day it first tripped off the tongue of Ewan MacColl who wrote the song.

The video, directed by Matt Dilmore, is below and you can download this track and others from the campaign at drmartens.com.
