The second official bootleg - Billy Bragg and The Blokes Mermaid Avenue Tour
This official Billy Bragg live bootleg contains almost 50 minutes of live music recorded during the Mermaid Avenue Tour.
Somewhere between a live tape and a Peel Session, the album contains 12 songs recorded in performance and in the studio in October/November 1998.
They are: I Guess I Planted - My Flying Saucer - Eisler On The Go - The Milkman of Human Kindness - She Came Along To Me - All You Fascists Bound To Lose - Must I Paint You A Picture - Christ For President - California Stars - A New England - Hoodoo Ska Voodoo - Way Over Yonder In The Minor Key.
Hear for yourself the feast of musical dexterity on offer when Billy and The Blokes take those Mermaid Avenue songs out on the road featuring MARTYN BARKER on drums and vocals, LU EDMONDS on cumbus, saz, electric guitar and vocals, SIMON EDWARDS on bass, BEN MANDELSON on bouzouki and bugeleiser, IAN McLAGAN on piano and Hammond organ. Guaranteed free of rambling raps.
