‘Proof that the art of songwriting is not dead. Occasionally acid flows from his pen but always the end product is thoughtful, witty and provocative.’ 
– SHEFFIELD TELEGRAPH March 1993

‘Another nineteen weighty tracks full of barbed verbiage and challenging assaults on society’s preconceptions … the cuts included here tend to be slightly deeper and harder, exploring rather more imaginative and ambitious degrees of arrangement’ – FOLK ROOTS Jan/Feb 1993

‘A collection of some of the great moments of vinyl history as recorded by Britain’s most witty, funny, poignant and biting lyricist.’

This is my letter to the Guardian which it refused to publish though it had well over 100 signatories:

"Since Gaza is uninhabitable, because Israel has made it so, and since most of Gaza’s citizens are refugees or the children of refugees, because Israel has made them so, the only just and humane solution is for them to be allowed to return to their homes in what was Palestine until Israel usurped it. Another Great March of Return, only this time without the violence inflicted on the marchers by Israeli snipers."
