No idle Bragg
Best album Billy Bragg ever created. A puckish satire indeed. From the warm, bittersweet, reminiscences of Saturday Boy to the more overtly political It Says Here, he is on top form, musically and lyrically. The production is warm and full and sounds like more than just Billy on his guitar going solo ( with the exception of some beautiful, selective, horn and organ additions on two tracks). Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates what singer/songwriter really means. Great stuff from start to finish.

Invaluable insight in to a badly overlooked (even then) band that actually tried something different.
As a teenage Crass fan I enjoyed the band's output from the Feeding of the 5000 to Ten Notes on a Summers Day and points in between. I had made an internet search after digging out Feeding after part-watching the Stormzy Glastonbury set and thinking that I had heard all this before somewhere and with more political acuity to it (rather than fame based attention seeking rapped, as it were, up in a less than inclusive starting point) and being struck by nostalgia. In short, Crass were a lot better than I remember them being and arguably relevant to today's world as much as they were then. Penis Envy, et-al were forty years ago but still resonate. The political climate today could do with a response from a band that at least tries to put across an alternative way of doing things. The extinction issues and political farce that is Brexit and all other issues that affect us all are all too apparent. This book is a great read for anyone who was interested in the band back then and who might want to look to a different way of doings things now. Sure, the band could come across as being up their own fundament but they actually appeared to give toss and that is the key and the more one reads the book the more one is struck by what a fundamentally decent bunch of humans they were albeit flawed as anyone is. This is no a messianic hagiography but a rounded history of the band. I would highly recommend it to anyone who actually thinks a bit differently.

A truly original book, nothing like it out there anywhere.
Mr Densmore writes with a compelling style that draws you into the issues that he seeks to highlight and the world that he inhabited through the ascendancy and the height of the Doors arc and thereafter. A great read; as a life long Doors fan and a lawyer this is an ideal book. It is a fine testament to matters that affect us all and that make life interesting, arguably; music, seeking truth and justice and meaning. Highly recommended.
