Mr. Love & Justice, New Billy Bragg Album, coming in March!

Billy Bragg has announced details of a new studio album, 'Mr Love & Justice'.

The release, out on March 3 in the UK, will be Billy's first new album in six years. It will contain 12 tracks and is produced by Grant Showbiz.

"Life is not just politics and not all love either," Bragg said of the mix of songs on Mr. Love and Justice. "It's a balance. Its that balance I'm trying to have."

Bragg's last album, England, Half-English, was released in 2002. Last year his first book, "The Progressive Patriot: A Search For Belonging," was published.

Cult English psychedelic musician Robert Wyatt provides guest vocals on album opener 'I Keep Faith'.

I know no details of these songs, but the tracklisting is:

'I Keep Faith'
'I Almost Killed You'
'M For Me'
'The Beach is Free'
'Sing Their Souls Back Home'
'You Make Me Brave'
'Something Happened'
'Mr Love & Justice'
'If You Ever Leave'
'O Freedom'
'The Johnny Carcinogenic Show'
'Farm Boy'

Billy released a live recording at Salisbury City Hall. You can download all the songs below.....including one of the NEW SONGS from Mr. Love & Justice, I Keep Faith.
