DYLAN COVER # 95 Billy Bragg - When the Ship Comes in/Positively 4th Street

The Bard of Barking

 
BILLY BRAGG - When the Ship Comes In

This track I believe comes from a Dylan tribute concert recorded at the Barbican in London on the 26th September 2005. There are DVDs of the venue in circulation and also a CD of the event. I have to say I have not seen it. What I have seen on You Tube looks great. I really must search it out.

The duet between Eliza Carthy and Billy Bragg is excellent. Where it comes from I have no idea?. I have given it a good search but cannot come up with time, date and place. No point in me getting stressed any further. Just sit back relax and enjoy.


Billy has a new album out too for all you new fans.

Good on yer Billy! 'When the Ship Comes In' is spot on and the duet with Eliza is worth it for the whistle solo alone - inspired!
