He has more 'Steet cred' than Phil Jupitus and Stephen 'Bloody' Fry, he was chosen to record some of Woody Guthrie's archive writings by Woody's family. He set words of Woody's to music of his own, and a very good job he made of it too. His credentials, working class and left leaning make him a good choice for the job. I have no axe to grind, as I feel about Billy Bragg as I used to about Bob Dylan, i.e I prefer other people doing his songs, [good songs too]
