Heard this years ago on a mix by EYE from Boredoms and just came across it again. Even though it's from 2013 it always sounded like it should have been on the soundtrack for Wipeout on the PS1.

Bit of trivia

This is where the trumpet bit came from

This is surprisingly only 1:04 and the version on the original album less the 50 secs.
Loved Robin of Sherwood and never forgot this cue which was my favourite. Just had not heard it for a long time.
No surprise it was called Battles. You knew there was going to be some fight action every time it kicked in - was heavily used.

Robin of Sherwood itself now looks like a precursor of many things that have defined metal in the last few decades:
Herne the Hunter the pagan / Obi Wan mentor of Robin is pure pagan metal.
They often have go somewhere spooky to meet him - a misty forest, amazing cave or island via a boat.
In the late 80's Quorthon Seth of Bathory left behind Satanic lyrics and introduced similar Norse pagan lyrics / imagery. This was hugely influential every since.

Also baddie Lord Simon de Belem was a practitioner of the dark arts. The Satanist came back from dead (his subordinate Guy of Gisborne had thrown Simon off the top of a castle) and that episode had some young women doing Satanic chants for ages.

So Clannad are the godparents of ambient Black Metal.
 
We all like a bit of Chaka Khan I'm sure. But the songs do follow a formula. But it's a damn good formula.

In amongst those tunes, and in the process of my white man dancing in the living room regimen, I'd completely forgotten about this one that came up on the radio today. There was a delivery man at the gate. He had to wait.

Fuck Allen Klein!

Yeah, an absolute shark. Well, he was from New York & he was a lawyer & he was Jewish. All the ingredients are there to be an awful prick.

According to Wikipedia

The song uses lyrics from the song Ruby Tuesday through the lyrics "goodbye Ruby Tuesday, come home you silly cow", it also uses the bass riff from Satisfaction. Following legal action by The Rolling Stones, the track is now credited to Morrison, Carter, Richards and Jagger.

The melody and 3 words from ruby Tuesday are obvious, but an interpolation.
I don't hear the bass line from satisfaction though.

Consequent to other thread. Derivative? Maybe, I care not.
