- you aint got it?order it now!"The Times They Are A Changin"

In short, if you are a fan of Billy Bragg and you don't see him enough live in person then this video is for you. You learn a lot more about bill's witty character, his humanitarian efforts to raise money for striking miners in Virginia, and his efforts to reach out to those in the USSR (at that time) for the sake of solidarity if you indulge in this documentary video. The first 50 minutes feature the best sound quality, while the musical recording in last 50 minutes in the Soviet Union is not as good (it varies from good to ok). Add this to your collection, It features priceless footage of Uncle Bill w/his band of characters; Cara (w/her baby boy, George), Wiggy, and Bill's "really cool manager" Peter Jenner, and Grant Showbiz "at the controls". You would be a fool to pass this up! All the songs are great accept when Bill plays the Russians "Heard It Throught The Grapevine" !!! Oh, muck! It's still Quite good ! Please write if you have furthur questions or would like to get to a concert!
