Billy Bragg: Lover's Town (I only have this as a peel session, I am not sure if it exists in another form)

...only if you count Lovers Town Revisited, which you shouldnae, because it is Nowhere Near As Good.

But from that same artist: The Saturday Boy, To Have And To Have Not, and maybe Scholarship Is The Enemy Of Romance and Qualifications.

Plus there's an obvious Alice Cooper cashcow.
