Billy Bragg

Recommended Posts

I like this guy, sort of a new thing for me in the last few months. We were discussing our favorite protest songs on another forum and it made me think of this dude. I think I've seen his name thrown around here over the last few years, but I've taken a liking to him. One of my favorite folk singers is Phil Ochs, and I'll be damned if I didn't come across a song by Billy Bragg that paid tribute to Phil Ochs. 

I'm still fairly new with his work, but I've enjoyed the variety I've heard, some of his very early stuff (A New England) and stuff written this century (Old Clash Fan Fight Song). Actually, Old Clash Fan Fight Song is a lot of fun, pretty clever really.
