Billy Bragg- Reel George Community cable Int and Live at Troy Music Hall 4/13/88 transfer f/VHS tape

It’s a double Tony Philputt day! Again by pure coincedence. Finding unique things to post from Tony’s collection can be a challenge. Since his collection has been unpacked and is in the new archive building, I grabbed 3 or 4 tapes that looked like they could have something interesting, and I got lucky on the first tape!

There is a Billy Bragg performance from the Reel George show online, but it is a different performance from 1986. I almost skipped this one until I looked closely at the dates.

Quality is not awful, but not perfect. Probably a few copies off the master. A few songs with a 2-camera setup and a short int.
