That's Not The Way It's Got To Be!
Leon Rosselson and Roy Bailey

British folk singers and social satirists Leon Rosselson and Roy Bailey present songs about social and economic issues dividing the British economic classes in 1970s England. Singing about the fundamental decency and creativity of ordinary people, they successfully navigate the thin political and artistic line between satire and cynicism. Of their music, a member of the British Parliament wrote: “The importance of Leon Rosselson and Roy Bailey is that they use their talents to bulldoze the sludge away and lay bare the deeper tradition of thought and feeling which the establishment has tried to keep safely covered up.”
