40 years ago today I carried my trusty Arbiter guitar and Cube 60 amp into the demo studio in the offices of Chappell Music near Marble Arch and over three intense days recorded my debut album Life's A Riot. Lots of 40th anniversary fun planned over the next 12 months. Stay tuned

Replying to @billybragg
@billybragg says it's all about solidarity. The UK musician and activist rallied with striking Elmwood Ave. @SBWorkersUnited employees today. The store has been closed almost a week because of what baristas say is escalating corporate retaliation. It's a claim @Starbucks denies.
