   Is there a UK equivalent of Bruce Springsteen? Would that be Paul Weller or at least the Punk era’s analogous version? Ray Davies/Kinks? I’m not sure if any of these fit..

     @LittleTokyo I want to say Shane MacGowan was in the ball park. Popular, gravelly voice, story teller, wrote great songs.

     @DaveG924 I was thinking that as well but came to the same conclusion but I totally support this option.

     @DaveG924 Richard Thompson fits the mold somewhat.

     @LittleTokyo If we’re going with strictly acoustic versions, I’d go with Billy Bragg

     @mrowster Oh yeah, I think this is the winner! Not that it's a competition.
