Thatcher’s Children + In Blood
The front cover has been designed by legendary Sex Pistols cover artist Jamie Reid who also shows at London gallery ‘The Aquarium’ alongside Billy, Sexton Ming, James Cauty and more. The back cover has a lovely picture of Maggie in her best Churchillian pose!We think this is their best album to date and probably one of Billy’s best ever, as usual the songs are fast and furious with biting lyrics and wry observations on today’s world.
Every 5 years or so Billy Childish is sited by the current top band as the embodiment of rock ‘n’ roll integrity, and every 5 years or so Billy splits his group up and starts again from scratch. With his latest combo, The Musicians of the British Empire, Billy carries on his tradition of home made punk and rhythm and blues. This is what a real rock ’n’ roll group sounds like.
BILLY has been releasing records since 1979, HOLLY has been releasing records since 1990, in 1999 they got together for a collaborative effort which originally came out in the USA on Wabana records.
