Biting, ferocious and utterly essential for anyone's record collection, 'Free World' from Kirsty MacColl's 1989 Kite album, is an inspirational song for a generation alienated by Thatcher's Britain. The fast-moving video finds Kirsty in various guises as newsreader, musician and social commentator.

Salvo has reissued several Kirsty MacColl albums plus "A Concert for Kirsty MacColl" from the Shepherd's Bush Empire, London in 2010 on CD and to download.

Saw this amazing lady sing live at Norwich Waterfront in Dec(I think) 91. There was a redneck heckler in crowd and she was having great fun verbally sparring with him like some sort of Queen Barmaid.

"..when the clans rise again.."If only. The late and very great Kirsty MacColl tells it like it still is.

I would have LOVED to sit down and have a beer with this lady. Can you imagine ? Easily one of my fave female artists of all time. Such a tragic loss.

A lot of people this side of the Atlantic breathed a sigh of relief this morning. I sat up all night, until Romney conceded at 4.20am our time. Not been much use at work today, but hey:-)

She looks like Edina from Absolutely Fabulous in those dancing scenes - I wonder if Jennifer Saunders copied her? :)

In the album version she says 'shag it' but it sounds like someones dubbed over it at 2:02 and not very well
