I have a new respect for Muswell Hillbillies. When Davies wrote it he was reacting to living through the complete socialization of Britain. In 2023, I get from an American perspective.
They did great albums in the late 70s: Sleepwalker, Low Budget.
You get him then. Davies is a very pro British, in a nostalgic way... It probably hurts him to see what is happening to England right now. I doubt he’ll ever go over to U-Kip though.
