Running In The Family was Level 42's 1987 album and featured the UK hit singles: "Lessons In Love", which reached No. 3 in April 1986, "Running In The Family" (No. 6 in February 1987), "To Be With You Again" (No. 10 in April '87) and "It's Over", which also made No. 10, in September 1987. 'Children Say' reached UK#22 at the end of 1987.

This was the last to feature brothers Phil (drums) and Boon 'Rowland' Gould (guitar), who had cited dissatisfaction with direction, and exhaustion as departure reasons.

Phil returned for the thus-far-final '94 album 'Forever Now' but chose not to tour it. Boon has made contributions to bassist/singer Mark King's 'One Man' solo album and is alleged to guest appear on 2006 album Retroglide.
