@alisonsghost Me too funnily enough - it was the first quite I used too - but my phone wasnt accepting my early attempts of jamming this - and I'd changed it a few times...
I now love a bit of the early Braggster! His voice (and his attitude, to be honest!) really use to irritate me when I first heard/saw him. But have grown to appreciate him, and loved him live a couple of years ago. I think we've both mellowed over the years!
@kemiladashdot I really hope so :) I want other people to suffer through meetings of The Socialist Forum as I once did! (Hope the stereo sales were ok today?)
@mikelowe - Aw Mike - you didn't like BB back then ... I loved all that - dya know The Red Skins? All that Red Wedge stuff? Well they got to you in the end anyways - did you see him live then????
@alisonsghost As in I can edit the first part of jam - title/comment..... but I can't edit the other comments .... I tend to write what I think - without making sure it could be understood properly!!!
@lindatee It's alright - I do that to, just having a moronic moment of horrible doubt. I don't seem to be able to listen to music and think logically at the same time. Also, ditto to what you just said x 10!!
Well Lindy, I think biggest prob for Billy, Red Wedgie & I back in the early 80's was politics!!! They all had (seemingly) unconditional support for the Labour Party. I was @ Uni. & a new convert to "Green" politics, we didn't mix well back then!! I think we've both moved towards each other over the years! Yep, saw him in concert a couple of years ago - great! Hope you're having a good w/end away? :-)
@mikelowe Thanks Mike - I do know what you're saying but I didn't seem like such a big gap with the greeons and labour back then. All the CND marches etc - seemed almost exclusively left wing. I was kinda in both camps at that time !

'just because you're going forwards doesn't mean I'm going backwards' was going round my head yesterday.

Are you radicalising the young folk? Good on ya, we're all benefiting from this recent BB spate.:))

@alisonsghost .... Oops - quote

@kemiladashdot Yep - everyone will benefit from a bit of Billy Bragg .... I've got the new album on right now - but love the old stuff

@lindatee It'll be a very happy day for me when they let you edit your posts or delete one without it being sent anyway!

@alisonsghost - it's usually my fault - but since you can edit one part of your jam - it's ludicrous you can't sort out the rest!!!!

@lindatee Erm...is that 'you' as in 'me'?
lindatee
@alisonsghost It's a generic "you" - or just "me" if you like ....
