...needn't worry. Her 1990 Verve release, The World Is Falling Down, Lincoln's first recording on a major label in more than a dozen years, sold well. In 1991 You Gotta Pay the Band, with saxophonist Stan Getz, sold even better, reaching the top of the jazz charts and staying there for months.

Loach's film is a hymn to blue-collar, multiracial mateyness, and you needn't plow through the thickly accented dialogue (subtitled for American ears) to guess his social agenda. The overlords of capitalism are Riff-Raff's real rats...
