Talking with the Taxman About Poetry is the third album by Billy Bragg, released in 1986 (see 1986 in music). With deeper production by John Porter and Kenny Jones, Talking with the Taxman About Poetry featured more musicians than Bragg's previous work, which was generally little more than Bragg himself and a guitar.
