I agree with you there, and when I saw Bragg I thought if Melv and thought 'how strange' but when I saw it was 'Billy' I thought ah well, never mind...
Also does Billy Bragg really otherwise 'admire' Nick Cohen?
I recall hearing our own arch drude on Radcliffe and Maconie come out with something you just would never have guessed.
Speaking about his novel, he made this telling comment re 'the capitalist system' (sic) and regardless of its flaws and injustices it has allowed him the privilege of doing his stuff on stage every night and enjoying the sort lifestyle not really worth complaining about.
Here's the interview, I've probably got the quote wrong but the gist is right:)
