Wild Billy Childish and The Musicians of The British Empire
For 30 odd years Billy Childish has been releasing music, writing poetry/books and painting pictures. An artist and true British excentric (Google his name if you wanna know more.) This is one of his latest offerings; a 7" only single released by Damaged Goods records: Punk Rock at The British Legion Hall b/w Joe Strummers Grave. Only heard it recently and it's a classic garage punk stomp. The lyrics to Joe Strummers Grave are a brilliant observation of the present state of the Great British nation, peppered with a healthy dose of humour. "Cool Britannia, Jesus saves/Rupert Murdoch rules the waves/Richard Branson doesn't shave/And Joe Strummers lying in his grave." Brilliant. Go on, you wont regret it, you know what to do.... It's just a click away: http://s19.quicksharing.com/v/8733747/WILD_BILLY_CHILDISH.rar.html
