From the mid-80s onwards, he had a clutch of crossover hits including the single "Sexuality" in 1991.

He released his debut album, "Life's a Riot with Spy vs Spy" in 1983, followed by: "Brewing Up with Billy Bragg" (1984), "Talking with the Taxman About Poetry" (1986), "Workers Playtime" (1988), "The Internationale" (1990), "Don't Try This at Home" (1991), "William Bloke" (1996), "England, Half-English" (2002), "Mr Love & Justice" (2008), plus 2013's: "Tooth & Nail".
