About This Item
Vinyl LP pressing. 2013 , the first new studio album in five years from the veteran British singer/songwriter and political activist. Britain has never needed a Billy Bragg album as much as it needs one right now. Economic strife, unpopular foreign wars and the continued electoral gains of the Far Right mean that the country is gripped with uncertainty, a lack of confidence in it's own identity. Far from solving the country's ills, Tooth & Nail promises to reflect the uncertain times in which we live on a personal level. Recorded across five days with Joe Henry, guests on Tooth & Nail include Greg Leisz (Bon Iver), Patrick Warren (Lana Del Rey), Jay Bellerose (Regina Spektor) and David Piltch (Ramblin' Jack Eliot). Album Tracks 1. January Song 2. No One Knows Nothing Any More 3. Handyman Blues 4. I Ain't Got No Home 5. Swallow My Pride 6. Do Unto Others 7. Over You 8. Goodbye, Goodbye 9. There Will Be a Reckoning 10. Chasing Rainbows 11. Your Name on My Tongue 12. Tomorrows Going to Be a Better Day
