Ronnie Laine - Brother, Can You Spare Me A Dime? (1975)


Ronnie Laine's take on an old song about the US depression.  This was used in a 1975 David Puttnam BBC2(?) TV documentary on the subject and the track was used as the closing credits rolled.  Good version of a powerful song.

To hear it go to BoyRed's SoundCloud/Brother
