Billy played this gig at The Mean Fiddler in London on the night of the UK General Election 1997. Billy comments on the results as they come in and adapts some songs to the event. This is one of the great Bragg gigs ! This was Billy's first set of the night. He played a second after it was announced that Labour had won the election - does anybody have a recording of that second set ?
