Subject: Billy at his best.
I love this period of Billy Bragg. It's kind of the end of his Billy the folk punk rock kid era. Or at least before he started really looking for different areas to explore. He was doing his signature sound at the height of its power for him and the kids in the crowd.

BTW the Marriage is there, it just wasn't spliced from the Myth of Trust. And the recording is really good, though there's a little bit of what sounds like noise reduction artifacts occasionally.

This is a great early solo Billy show. His electric sounds different here - perhaps a different amp with a slinkier sound. Soundboard is a believable source for this one.

The files as of this review do not include "the marriage", though it is currently in the track listing.

"Chile" is a nice a capella tune, and there's a nice semi-rare performance of "think again" - a favorite.
