All he does is moan

Billy Bragg is a legend.
I really love his "Shirly" and his acoustic cover of The Smiths "Jeane" is fantastic.

Listen to the Mermaid Avenue albums 1 and 2, and you will hear some good tunes, and Wilco overshadows Bily Bragg so much, listen to those albums and you'll hear about 3 qualtiy bragg songs and you'll become a wilco fan also so its worth it

No kidding, I'm just saying the best songs on the album are song by Jeff Tweedy, and all the insturments are played by members of wilco besides some guitar by Bragg. The original poster said hes not into all that political stuff, and on those albums Wilco plays alot of Woody's songs that show a diff side of him, while Bragg sticks to alot of the political stuff
