Does anyone else here like Billy Bragg?

I used to have most of his records. I particularly liked his recording of The Red Flag. HE went back to it's roots and played it as it was originally written, an Irish Jig - and not the funeral dirge that it later became.

I also respect the fact that for most of his career, he actually printed Capitalism Is Killing Music Pay No More Than £2.99 for this album on the covers.

"Milkman of Human Kindness" was one of my favourites when I was a kid.

His re-wording of the Internationale is wonderful!

Waiting for the Great Leap Forward,
