Don’t Try This at Home

Billy Bragg

Polished studio production meets sharp political wit. A departure from solo guitar work into lush, full-band arrangements and bright 90s jangle pop.

September 17, 1991 · Elektra

A sophisticated blend of public defiance and private tenderness wrapped in warm 90s production.

Moments Worth Listening For

The devastatingly sparse piano and vocal delivery on Tank Park Salute, a tribute to the artist's late father.
The upbeat, collaborative energy of You Woke Up My Neighbourhood featuring the distinctive backing vocals of Michael Stipe.
