    This is a very useful album, introducing a serious selections of songs from Britain's industrial past (weavers, miners etc). A lot of the tracks are very short, but that merely means they have been able to be pretty ambitious in their coverage. Don't turn to this album for laughs. There's a lot of misery on it.
