Poor Man's Version

Can't afford it? Not a problem.

Andrian Belew's Salad Days is the poor man's Billy Bragg's Back to Basics




So this comparison is about musicians stripping down their sound and just playing their hit songs with as little production as possible. I listened to Billy Bragg throughout college when I thought it'd be fun to be a socialist. Especially one with an electric guitar. Then I realized being a socialist is more fun when you have some money squirreled away. And right now I wish I had squirreled away $4,400 last year for the IRS (Stone Bloodletting Division).

How the hell were we supposed to live off $4,400 less last year?!?!?

FYI: "Never Enough" is a good track off of the Belew album.
