You're welcome and thanks fo the good words...FC<br />You're welcome and thanks fo the good words. More Bragg is inevitable, after all he is where this blog started. <br /><br />Longy<br />Yeah that clip was cool, I quite like the idea (even though the tune sounds suspiciously like something from "Don't Try this at Home".<br /><br />Bio<br />I haven't seen Billy for years (those between song banters have spiraled out of control) plus I really haven't liked an album in a long time. I tried to go see him when he played the Folk Festival a few years ago but got there too late.<br />Thanks for that video, like any good Canadian of a certain age, Lightfoot's in my blood.<br />Did Bragg ever do the Tattler live? I've kept that "Greetings.." 12" since the eighties and it's one of the reasons I so loathe those Bragg re-issue on Yep Rock.<br /><br />CPB<br />"Fuckin' holly<br /> Fuckin' bells<br /> Fuckin' eggnog<br /> All holy hells!"<br /><br />Nope, it's not going to be JCC, no matter how well the smack preserved his gauntness.jeffenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05015674620176399988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4191686244361274747.post-41314083291778711492009-12-04T08:11:14.273-06:002009-12-04T08:11:14.273-06:00Oops!

You could not tell he was a former junkie lost somewhere in his 50's, that's for sure!<br /><br />And very nice to hear the Braggification (via The Big D) of Mr. Clarke's chart topper. The question remains, however, who will do a Christmas album next?CallPastorBobnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4191686244361274747.post-83263455446854538632009-12-04T02:51:48.104-06:002009-12-04T02:51:48.104-06:00Nice one Jeffen!

Did you get to see him @ the BCT on the 28th?<br /><br />I almost missed this one myself, due to the length of the "Bragg-Banter" beforehand...<br /><br />He also reprised his cover of Gordon Lightfoot's "Early Morning Rain" on this tour and played it at one of my favourite record stores:<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VrTuwovfr4&feature=player_embedded<br /><br />Now if I could only find a live version of "The Tatler", I'd be a very happy boy...<br /><br />Yours in musical solidarity!biopunkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11614894519622906554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4191686244361274747.post-13716457873972952982009-12-03T04:28:57.631-06:002009-12-03T04:28:57.631-06:00Oops that should read "never seen"Oops that should read "never seen"Longyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08168794648430025104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4191686244361274747.post-20801574959458827912009-12-03T04:28:16.993-06:002009-12-03T04:28:16.993-06:00I've seen that Billy Bragg clip.
