REGULAR Morning Star readers need no introduction to Attila the Stockbroker. Performance poet, musician and staunch socialist, his bimonthly diary often bulletins from his shows in far-flung outposts and latterly, in the absence of gigs, his ruminations on music, poetry and life in lockdown has long been a favourite read of the people’s paper.
Already a bolshy young bolshie, in the late 1970s the advent of punk rock in general and the Clash in particular drew young John Baine to appreciate the DIY aspect of entertainment and its links with politics, first as organiser and master of ceremonies for Rock Against Racism gigs and, increasingly, as performer.
