Bit of a strange one to put up retrospectively for NYE. You might have expected some heaving duty raging rock or dance track but this was one of many tracks that came up on a friend’s shuffling iPod and started a conversation about Billy Bragg so that’s what you get. Four Tops lead singer, Levi Stubbs died in 2008 which led to this track picking up a few radio plays. I’ve been playing a bit of guitar again this year and this is one of the songs I re-learnt so another good reason. The alternative would have been another track that features on Rock Band or even worse something from the Singstar Abba game.
Good to see Bragg playing the Burns on this one and Dave Woodhead turning up for that trumpet bit.
