Awesome interview, love he talks so frank and honest and a insight into the Music industry pre internet age and politics.
Looking at him there makes me feel bloody old !
Right, now for some shameless touting for votes!!...

You've all chipped in some thoughts this week so, unless you are ideologically opposed to scoring music (in which case fair play), how about rating the album out of 10?
Haha. If you had done it at the start of the week, you could at least have claimed it was for the sake of discussion rather than the numbers!

Haha, I know. I clearly am more invested in old Bill than I thought as I want him to score well I'm way I've not been that bothered about for other noms!! (Notice the subtle way I implied it's about the love of the artist as opposed to me just being a saddo there :-)))
As a parting shot on Billy, did people watch the video I linked in my op, of Bill Bailey performing 'Unisex Chip Shop'? It's probably my favourite musical parody and the way he says 'do you want salt and vinegar' is just genius.
Haven't been posting much as busy with work but have been listening to the albums.Just checking if @GoatersLeftShin is ready for an album nomination this afternoon.
If not, I'm putting @Gaudion M and @BimboBob on standby.
Lol, I’d struggle to rate it as I’ve not listened to it for many years. It reminds me of starting work in the mid 80’s, a colleague lent it to me and I held on to it for a few weeks so it was decent.
Always liked Billy and the video reminds me why. I think Johnny Marr might have been on this one but I might be thinking of something else.
That's fair enough. If you do have chance have a listen to it though. Lots of fun to be had re listening to old stuff which is sometimes the case on this thread. In Billy's case I think it would be easy to assume he was of his time but imo he's aged remarkably well.
