Musician, artist, writer and resolute rabble-rouser, Billy Childish has stomped and stamped through a terrific range of bands since forming The Pop Rivits in 1977. Touted as an inspiration by behemoths like Cobain, White and Minogue, Childish himself has been an avatar of everything from thrash--folk to punk. In a rare outing away from his mainstay band the Buff Medways, Childish tonight collaborates with his wife on bass and with friends in tow in a return to rawer roots. Guitars twang and mouth organs squawk whilst Billy's fractured and fragile voice is possessed of an effortless, un-showy power, all the more effective for its uncommonly exposed setting.
Good Dylan cover. I enjoyed it: maybe the man himself would too.

shit that's bad. Back in the 70's we used to neck Collis Browns ( patent medicine)...think I need to neck a bottle now after listening to this.
