The great British singer-songwriter Billy Bragg, one of the most reliable left-wing good guys in all of music, has just announced plans for a new album. This fall, Bragg will release The Million Things That Never Happened. A press release calls it “the first pandemic blues album of our time.” That seems unlikely, but you can certainly see why recent circumstances would’ve brought some fire out of a guy like Billy Bragg. Bragg recorded the album in England, and he wrote all 12 songs by himself except for closing track “Ten Mysterious Photos Which Can’t Be Explained,” which he co-wrote with his son Jack Valero. (Valero also plays guitar in Bragg’s band.)
