    I'm Italian and I've recently discovered Billy Bragg. He's very good, I fell in love madly at the first listen. Why the fuck I've never heard him before? In Italy, of all the beautiful english music , you only get the crap out of it !

    25 people need to get a life. Found Billy just after i joined the army mid 80s, listened to Talking to the tax man about poetry every time i caught the train home from Darlington to Newport with my carry out of export red.

    I had the honor to hear him playing a concert in Germany. In an industrial site.
    He was fascinated by former miners telling him about their lives after the concert

    I saw Billy Bragg live in the late 90s. It was one of the highlights of my life. I'd love to see him again.

    I can't believe that "Greeting to the New Brunette" is 30 years old now. I guess was all got old. The song was such revelation at 20 years old.

    Billy was right. Even though this concert was from 2013, it's almost as though it was written for 2021. The more things change, the more things stay the same.

    He´s older now, but he´s the same! Billy Bragg changed my life! He has heart in the right place! I was on 2 concerts in the early 90s, one with the Red-Stars and one solo! Both were outstanding! Thanks for the recording of this concert in a bycicle store!

    i'll finish off here by saying that billy bragg was-like many of us-an idealist in his youth, and no doubt also made errors in judgement.
    for what it's worth, bragg is now regarded as a bit of an elder statesman on british politics,and is regularly asked to speak on serious tv and radio programmes where his views-perhaps not quite the same as in his youth-are regarded as being valid and worthy.

    I don't believe anyone would ever claim the DDR was in any way a Utopia but at least the people had the right to
    free healthcare
    a paid job with annual leave
    free education
    access to housing
    I believe the people of the United States will be waiting a long time before they achieve these basic human rights.

    I hope the irony of a multi-millionaire (net worth = $5 million) who owns and lives in (just some of the time) a massive cliff top house in Dorset singing 'I Ain't Got No Home' isn't lost on viewers.
