Once accused by Nicky Wire of stealing Woody Guthrie songs, Bragg provides a case for the prosecution rather than his own defence with this latest single. More folk than the pub rock of his fledgling career, this is the sound of the artist as an old man. Now 50, the Bard of Barking has matured like Cheddar. Biscuits anyone?
