The Official Clash & Joe Strummer Thread

[guns_of_brixton]

YEa, a 3 megabyte file only takes 25 minutes on msn :).

[Riding_Downstream]

You poor souls need slsk. I've got a solid 6 Clash bootlegs :cool:. Live at Bon'd may be the best quality and energy-wise.



Truth. And on Eternity the percussion he's doing on Armagideon Time is saweet.

Whats your slsk, mine is the exact same as my MX name, add me, I want to see some of you Clash stuff

[guns_of_brixton]

My slsk is gunsofbrixton. I've got to organize my files a little better, but you are free to take anything you want, if I'm ever on, that is :).

[Maverick_Special]

Can someone clear this up for me...I keep hearing this rumor that the Clash are going to go on a reunion tour with Tim Armstrong from Rancid as their lead singer. Is there any truth to this?

[redstainedeyes]

I dont know about everyone else, but I'm pretty sure it's just a rumour.

[CombatRock]

don't hurt me

[CombatRock]

We can hurt you over the internet.

slsk= Soul Seek, its a music downloading thing and you can share the music.

Hello Clash board. Just checking in. And yes Combat Rock, the internet can be a very painful place. Especially for those who spread silly rumors.

:smash:

[CombatRock]

hahah, i love silly rumors that arnt going to happen and shouldnt!

This new band im joining, with this guitarist who everyone things is jesus on guitar, he wants to cover Guns of Brixton, he suggested it to me.

[guns_of_brixton]

I could be Jesus on guitar if I wasn't a jew. And I bet you my band's Guns of Brixton will > yours :).

[CombatRock]

Maybe, i dont know, we havent got together yet. i hope to have recordings of us.

[JohnXDoe]

I could be Jesus on guitar if I wasn't a jew. And I bet you my band's Guns of Brixton will > yours :).

Hey, Jesus was a jew. And a real original one at that. So i think you qualify.

Could it be?..... jesus_of_brixton!

Not to be confused with Jesus Of Suburbia, God forbid :smash:

[RIP Ian Curtis]

clash covers pwn. I love playing London Calling above all, has plenty of oppurtunity for groovy little fills.

[Mild_child]

Jesus Of Suburbia

shut up. :angry:

[CombatRock]

clash covers pwn. I love playing London Calling above all, has plenty of oppurtunity for groovy little fills.

Has anyone heard that album that a bunch of bands did covering clash songs.

[Mild_child]

Has anyone heard that album that a bunch of bands did covering clash songs.
i once heard of an album called Charlie does surf and there are a whole bunch of Surf covers of clash songs. i love those kinds of bands, really

[sketchyjoe]

There's loads of Clash tribute albums.

[Daniel!]

There's loads of Clash tribute albums.

Many of them not very good.

[CombatRock]

I still havent heard any of them.

[guns_of_brixton]

Sean Flynn is a cool song, and like alot of the stuff on Combat Rock it sounds much like Uncarved Block (teh fluxxurs).

[CombatRock]

Whats Uncarved Block?

[Brain Toad]

Whats Uncarved Block?

Flux of Pink Indians album


Flux > Clash

[JohnXDoe]

Flux of Pink Indians album


Flux > Clash

Sorry Brain is Squrmin'. I have not heard Flux or whartever, and I do not know what or who it is. I'm sure they/it are fine. But I'm afraid that's not possible, my good man. :smash:

All due respect.

[CombatRock]

No one can beat the clash.

[Brain Toad]

Plenty can. But I don't want my head on a Clash whore stick.

[JohnXDoe]

No one can beat the clash.

Not with twice the output or twice the talent, IMO. The Clash were something special and unique. And I don't think that is fanboyism. Because I certainly am not one of those. But to my mind, it's just the truth.

I like, I like.

[KingOfSka]

There's a hip hop type thing happening where I live called Clash. So my dad is like "Hey do you want to go to this Clash thing, I saw an ad for it in the paper." So obviously I was kind of confused, seeing as Joe Strummer is dead, then I remembered that whole Tim Armstrong re-forming with the Clash, so I told my dad to get tickets. At this point I thought the Clash were coming to where I live, I didn't know it was a f'ucking rap battle.

I was flipping through the Sunday Funnies a couple days later, and saw a big ad for The Clash Rap Battle. After thoroughly banging my head on the wall I went and told my dad to get rid of the tickets, and that there was no way I was going to a rap battle.

That's what happens if you don't do your homework kiddies.

[TheNowhereman42]

I woulda gone anyway

[CombatRock]

Hhahaha, that funny. I would go too.

[guns_of_brixton]

If you needed tickets for a rap battle it must be good. I bet I'd go.

[(r)evolution]

you shoulda gone.. I mean, rap AND a battle. How can you go wrong?

[Mannik]

I've been to a rap battle and it wasn't all bad, I could never come up with such creative lines as they did right on the spot.

[CombatRock]

This is a Clash thread not a Rap battle thread.


I got a white bass today like Paul.

[redstainedeyes]

I love those basses. It's weird cause Paul played one, Dee Dee played one, and Sid played one.

[guns_of_brixton]

A million people played P Basses.

[redstainedeyes]

None of my friends like them. I think they're hot.

[guns_of_brixton]

They own, all your friends must be Ibanez bass shitheads.

[CombatRock]

Ibanez sucks. Why Dee Dee, Sid and Paul all played white fenders because that was fenders main color back then.

[CombatRock]

I love guns of brixton live! Pauls "singing" makes me smile.

[JohnXDoe]

I love guns of brixton live! Pauls "singing" makes me smile.
The Guns Of Brixton Lyrics

(Paul Simonon)

When they kick at your front door
How you gonna come?
With your hands on your head
Or on the trigger of your gun

When the law break in
How you gonna go?
Shot down on the pavement
Or waiting on death row

You can crush us
You can bruise us
But you'll have to answer to
Oh, the guns of Brixton

The money feels good
And your life you like it well
But surely your time will come
As in heaven, as in hell

You see, he feels like Ivan
Born under the Brixton sun
His game is called survivin'
At the end of the harder they come

You know it means no mercy
They caught him with a gun
No need for the Black Maria
Goodbye to the Brixton sun

You can crush us
You can bruise us
Yes, even shoot us
But oh-the guns of Brixton

When they kick at your front door
How you gonna come?
With your hands on your head
Or on the trigger of your gun

You can crush us
You can bruise us
Yes, even shoot us
But oh-the guns of Brixton

Shot down on the pavement
Waiting in death row
His game is called survivin'
As in heaven as in hell

You can crush us
You can bruise us
But you'll have to answer to
Oh, the guns of Brixton

:)

[Maverick_Special]

Why does everyone hate Ibanez's? I have played one for near 3 years and I love it. I have tinkered with it a bit but I get a great sound form it.

Yes my favorite clash song, like i said a couple of pages ago one of my bands is covering it. i think im going to play bass and sing it.

[SlappedByTheClash]

They own, all your friends must be Ibanez bass shitheads.

J bass> P bass.


My Jazz's tone is so much better than my old P. I get wicked string buzz on my P bass.

[redstainedeyes]

I can't decide which one looks better, but I've heard from a lot of people that the Jazz Bass sounds a lot better - I don't play bass so I wouldn't know.

[CombatRock]

*cough*clash thread*cough*pbasspwnsall*cough*

[guns_of_brixton]

Travis has a P-Bass special, a mix of both :cool:. J's are only good if you use the pickup furthest from the bridge. The one next to the brodge sounds like absolute **** by itself. I'm mainly guitarist... but I like a lower sounding bass.

[CombatRock]

Paul has the tone i model mine after, nice and bassy.

[the101er]

did you get a pbass? or is it just white? :lol:

[CombatRock]

I just got a white bass, i got it for nothing, im trying it out, im not going to keep it, its in horrible condition.

[guns_of_brixton]

I want it! I'm not joking, ship it to me, you're rich.

[Rise Me Up]

The Kaiser Chiefs singer sounds A LOT like Joe.

[AIRIC]

Lol Clash

[redstainedeyes]

I don't get it.

[CombatRock]

I want it! I'm not joking, ship it to me, you're rich.
Its not my bass its my drummers uncles, he was gunna sale it to me for cheap. but it sucks, really bad, i dont know if typed this already, but there was no nut so the only place in town that has a nut is the wrong kinda so the action is so high, you cant fix it. and you cant move the pickups up. its so cheap.

[Scabies]

The Kaiser Chiefs singer sounds A LOT like Joe.


:confused:

[Maverick_Special]

The Kaiser Chiefs singer sounds A LOT like Joe.
I am sorry but I do not hear the resemblance at all...and that band sucks compared to the Clash.

[CombatRock]

/ never heard of the Kaiser Cheifs.

[redstainedeyes]

/ never cared about the Kaiser Chiefs

[FightDaPowa!]

ello mates, i was considering the purchase of Joe Strummer and the Mascaleros(spelling) album...

is it worth it? and if so. which album would you suggest.

[SlappedByTheClash]

ello mates, i was considering the purchase of Joe Strummer and the Mascaleros(spelling) album...

Anyone. They're all fantastic.



Streetcore might be the most accessible though.

[guns_of_brixton]

Yea, get Streetcore. You need patience to listen to Global A-Go-Go and I haven't heard much off of Rock Art.

[CombatRock]

YES! get a Meskie cd they are so good!!! Streetcore is the one i ahve and its awesome.

[Daniel!]

YES! get a Meskie cd they are so good!!! Streetcore is the one i ahve and its awesome.

Get Down Moses rules.

[CombatRock]

Oh yes it does, probley my favriote song by them.


Its just as good as your avatar.

[RIP Ian Curtis]

Hey was Joe Strummer any good fronting the Pouges? Not being Irish and all, not sure if he could do 'em justice...

[CombatRock]

I have never heard is work with the Pouges unforutantley, but hey its Joe Strummer, he would have been good fronting NWA haha.

[RIP Ian Curtis]

Funnily enough Shane Macgowan got his ear bitten off by his girlfriend in 77 at a clash gig...

Joe Strummer fronting NWA...
It would be amusing. But I don't like NWA anyway.

[CombatRock]

haha i love em.

Yea i read that in this NME clash mag, who is shane macgowan?

[RIP Ian Curtis]

The lead singer of the Pouges. He quit for a while in the early 90's, but they're back together. Shane is awesome, he also had a 2nd rate band for a while called "The Popes". Try and track down the documentary "If I Should Fall From Grace With God", it has high levels of awesome. And we sould probably stop talking about NWA otherwise I'll get back onto my "I Hate Hip-Hop" bandwagon and get banned again...

[RIP Ian Curtis]

I still can't see Joe replacing Ice Cube. Can you imagine him opening "Straight Outta Compton"... scary thought.

[AB/CD]

u left out shane macgowans punk band the Nips they were class gotta a few of their songs here anyway.

far as i no joe done a good job replacing shane my mate has a clip somewhere of joe singing with them.

[JohnXDoe]

Hello Clash board. :wave:

I have been spurred on by the activity on this board to listen to an awful lot of Clash lately. Today I have the day off and listened to just about the whole of Sandinista! First time I've listened to it front to back in good many a year, as I usually skip around it.

All I can say is wow. Perhaps I never noticed before, but this album is brillant. It might be my new favorite from them. I heard things today in this album I had never heard before. Or perhaps I just heard it differently then I have before? Whatever the case, I was knocked out by it.

What are the thoughts of some of you regarding this remarkable album? It's been really nice listening to all this Clash lately and this was just a complete surprise to me. I feel like I've heard it for the first time again, and it's much better this time around. Anybody else enjoy this album in a big way? I think it's stunning.

[RIP Ian Curtis]

It's alright, but I don't really dig The Clash post London Calling. Not because I think they sold out or anything, just don't like the more disco/new wave/reggae kinda stuff in comparison to the old classics.

[CombatRock]

Im the oppostie, i like post London Calling, and most the die hard "clashiniets" like post London Calling more, i dont know why though.

[redstainedeyes]

I just like everything...except Cut the Crap, which I haven't heard.

[Daniel!]

The first three albums are my favorite and Combat Rock is my least favroite. Sandinista is somewhere in the middle.

[Brain Toad]

I saw Hit by a Semi (http://www.myspace.com/hitbyasemi) yesterday at a car show, and as they were setting up they were playing Clash on their PA.

[JohnXDoe]

The Clash are everywhere. Can't be stopped or helped.

Anyway, I am listening to Sandinista once again today. Freakin' brillant album. Hitsville U.K. is great. :)

They played Janie Jones which didn't bother me, my favourite Clash song if I was forced at gunpoint to say I liked a Clash song. They also had Police & Theives play and it got stuck in my head.

They weren't that good of a band though. And had everything turned up too loud.

[CombatRock]

The Clash are everywhere. Can't be stopped or helped.

Anyway, I am listening to Sandinista once again today. Freakin' brillant album. Hitsville U.K. is great. :)

As soon as i get more cash im buying that album.

[guns_of_brixton]

If they would eliminate the stupid female vocals on Hitsville it could be better.

And was the band playing Janie Jones? Or just on their PA?

[CombatRock]

Sounds like just the PA. Sean get on MSN more.

Just wondering, I'm not saying it's stupid or anything.

[AIRIC]

I don't.

[guns_of_brixton]

Nick likes their first album. He pretends to hate them much more than he actually does.

[CombatRock]

I know Skrunnch loves them. He is the honory Clash Whore this week.

[redstainedeyes]

Is it becoming cool to hate The Clash like it's cool to hate Sex Pistols?

[AIRIC]

Not at all, I was a bit of a fan about a year ago from Combat Rock, and after I got into their other stuff, I hated it.

[Brain Toad]

You don't like The Clash?

Just wondering, I'm not saying it's stupid or anything.

Not that much no. I enjoy their first album and their punk songs, but I don't like their ska, reggae, or funk/disco/pop stuff at all.

[CombatRock]

Clash never made a country song. Wonder what it would have sounded like?

[guns_of_brixton]

Yes they did. Lonesome Me, from the Vanilla tapes.

[Buzzbomb]

It seems most people prefer London Calling to all their other albums. But i think their self titled album was the best.

[guns_of_brixton]

I listened to London Calling so many times that I can barely listen to it anymore.

[CombatRock]

Same here.

Im going to listen to Lonesome Me.


London Calling was on Gene Simmons Rock School.

[JohnXDoe]

I gotta give it up for Sandinista. It's just so creative and expansive. Very atmospheric in places, too. I think this album along with London Calling really gave punk some staying power and far reaching influence. Could you imagine being a punk musician back then and hearing these albums new? All of a sudden the doors were kicked all the way down! Anything was possible. Sure you had ska bands, reggae, funk, rockabilly, dance, punk, etc. But here was one band who had the balls to do it all and take it to the limit and beyond. They could of come with a single album after London Calling and cashed in. But instead they came with this three disc beast. No one released three album sets of new original music back then. They still don't. And here comes this little punk band from England with the guts enough to do it. And the messege was punk is whatever you want it to be.

To me the Clash were unique and brillant because of Londen Calling and Sandinista. And to a lesser extent Combat Rock. If they had just kept it "punk" as it was defined back then, they would of gone down as just another pretty good band that had some success and came and went. Instead they influenced and inspired a whole new generation of musicians. Punk and otherwise. London Calling and Sandinista were bold statements that moved everything forward, IMO. Because all that diverse music didn't come from a dozen bands. It came from one. And it came from an unlikely one and was done so well, it was undeniable. Yet the band always maintained there identity, integrity, and perhaps most of all, dignity. That is not something most bands could do. Even today.

Overpowered By Funk? Hell yeah! :cool:

[Mannik]

I'm loving the deep shi't man, and Overpowered By Funk is a sweet song.

[CombatRock]

He is good at giving long speeches on the Clashes greatness.

[The Clash]

Is it true the clash are going back on tour with tim armstrong taking over for Strummer

[JohnXDoe]

Is it true the clash are going back on tour with tim armstrong taking over for Strummer

That's a big fat lie! :angry:

Lies I tell 'ya. Unsavory untruths! :p

Some loser with no life made it up.

In "rude boy" what are the letters on joe's shirt (the red one with a pic of an ak-47) and what do they stand for? just wondering figure you guys would know

[the101er]

If its a red one it could be his homemade RAF Brigade Rosse tshirt, the Brigade Rosse were a militia in Spain or something :thumb:

[CombatRock]

Wow, you look alot like him. I look like Mick Jones but less ugly and skinny. Can you say TRIBUTE BAND!?
Hells ya, uh...i can be Bernie.

[Criss Frantic]

Wowee, i just had another look at that photo and there's actually a stencil of joe on the shirt i'm wearing. That's karma..or somethin...

[CombatRock]

Do you own a telecaster or can get a hold of one?

[white_riot]

If its a red one it could be his homemade RAF Brigade Rosse tshirt, the Brigade Rosse were a militia in Spain or something

I think they were a terrorist group in Italy.

[CombatRock]

Yall are aware i made a shirt that says Hate and War on it. Well time i made a new one, i have a plain green shirt and a plain dark grey shirt, what should i spray on it. Clash related of course.


I will show my Hate and War shirt soon.

[JohnXDoe]

Train in Vain would look good on a shirt. Sounds good, too.

I wanted to say I picked up Chaos In New York at my music service (allofmp3.com) the other day and it is remarkable. It's a live recording of the legendary shows the Clash did in New York City during the tour supporting Sandinista. Anyone else ever hear this? Probably so. It's not really available here in the states, so it came as a surprise to me. I combined much of it with tracks from From Here To Eternity Live and it is great. If you don't have it, I highly recommend it. And it has lots of great cuts from Sandinista, too.

[CombatRock]

Yea i have allot of songs from the bonds shows, thanks to sean.

[Brain Toad]

I want the official band threads to look more interesting then they do now, so I need your assistance for clever titles. These titles should relate to the band in some way, whether they be songs, albums, lyrics, or quotes. So if you have any ideas, please post them here, and the best idea will be used.

[JohnXDoe]

I suppose you mean the titles we see when we look at the thread listing page. So for example:

The Clash on MX Thread. Featuring Joe Strummer. Which is a take on The Clash on Broadway.

Or perhaps Straight To Hell: The Clash/Joe Strummer Thread. I like that one myself.

Or maybe MX Calling: The Clash/Joe Strummer Thread.

These are just ideas. I'm not sure exactly what you are looking for.

John and Robert: The Dead Kennedys Thread.

Or perhaps John and Robert = Jello: The Dead Kennedys Thread. Cheesy, but kinda funny.

The Dead Kennedy ones don't really mention song titles or lyrics or anything, but perhaps are a clever play on words anyway. And the = Jello one could kind of relate not only to Jello Biafra, but also to the condition of both Kennedy's on there final day. A bit tasteless, but hell, it is the Dead Kennedys. The name of the band itself was meant to shock.

How many other official band threads are there? I looked through almost all the punk pages and I see threads about bands such as Bad Religion and Social D and what not, but nothing that looks too official.

Anyway, these are just off the top of my head. If I have any brain power to spare tommorow I'll try to think of some more. I do like the Straight To Hell one, though. :)

The official ones are listed in the rules, they are
The Clash
Dead Kennedys
Leftover Crack/Choking Victim
Streetlight Manifesto/Catch 22
Against Me!

The AFI one is an unofficial official since its the main thread on the band, the same with the Misfits thread that was floating around for awhile.

[Criss Frantic]

Do you own a telecaster or can get a hold of one?

From London to Jamaica: the Clash / Strumma Thread.

the clash is my favorite band right now, my favorite songs are death or glory, rudie cant fail, and lost in the supermarket. im also reading a book thats a biography of the clash called passion is a fashion, its quite interesting :thumb:

[CombatRock]

Or maybe MX Calling: The Clash/Joe Strummer Thread

I like that one.

I was gonna get that book... but I didn't have enough money and don't like reading that much :(.

And you can't go wrong with either one of those songs.

[CombatRock]

Andy has Passion is a Fashion.


That sounds like a Barbie movie.

[CombatRock]

So whats the new name going to be for the thread?

[AIRIC]

Clash are faggots

LOL

[CombatRock]

Skrunnch is a large bundle of stickss

LOL


I really dig the name change.

[AIRIC]

Ouch.

[guns_of_brixton]

My name change suggestion had to do with one of the best Clash bootlegs I've heard.

[JohnXDoe]

So whats the new name going to be for the thread?

I dunno :confused:. There are some good ideas around, I suppose. Could be almost anything, really. Final decision is up to the Mod In Black. He might have his own ideas. I haven't come up with any others. It just seems like an endless prarade of names is possible. I figure I'd keep it simple. I really haven't thought about any of the other bands. Maybe I'll give it a go later.


EDIT: Oh, it's been changed! Very good. I like it. Wonder why. :)

[CombatRock]

Yea, i think it was the best one.

[CombatRock]

I just got done watching this speical in PBS called Get Up Stand Up, it was about music and politics. And when they did the "punk" part It had the Clash, and its showed the clash more than any other bands, its showed them playing live, and talked to joe. and on one of the clips of them live, Joe was playing a strat.

[RIP Ian Curtis]

I just got out all of my Clash best ofs and singles collections. Lost In A Supermarket always ruins my enjoyment. On one of my compilations its like white riot, janie jones, i fought the law, career oppurtunites, garageland and just when you're really enjoying the awesome along comes Lost In A Supermarket, followed by Train In Vain. And then I have to get up and push the skip button. And d'amn if I'm not too lazy to bother with that.

[JohnXDoe]

^ "I wasn't born so much as I fell out, nobody seemed to notice me....."

I like the lyrics to the song. Not crazy about the chorus or the song itself, but it's pop enough for Mick, I suppose.

It's funny that Combat Rock should mention politics and the Clash. The Clash were probably the most overtly political band ever. Thanks to Joe they could be very direct like in Washington Bullets or The Call Up, or more clever as in The Magnificant Seven or Atom Tan. That's another thing I liked about the Clash. They weren't really around very long, but they evolved so fast while they were. Musically, lyrically, and creatively. I don't think any other band could of pulled off those politics and all that music and found critical and mainstream success. All the while maintaining a level of credibility few bands could ever hope of achieving in the first place. I've been listening to a lot of them as of late and I think I'm enjoying them more then ever. I hear new and different things in the mix. The Chaos In New York album has really opened my ears, also. I think they have moved up a notch on my list of all time favorite bands.

[RIP Ian Curtis]

I will agree that The Clash are one of the best "political" bands around, the only other band who are their equal are the dead kennedys. Basically I judge a bands political music quality on whether or not I can get over disagreeing with them enough to really listen to them.

[guns_of_brixton]

I wouldn't call the Clash the most political band... maybe at their time. The Magnificent Seven gots some sweeet political lyrics, Radio Clash is cool too.

And I like Lost In the Supermarket. The guitar solo is pretty rad with the effects. If somebody could tab it they'd get sex from yours truly.

[white_riot]

I couldn't be bothered to go to school yesterday so i went shopping and went to a newsagent and picked up a magazine and they had a little article saying that The Clash (Mick and Paul) are reforming with Tim from Rancid which I know everybody knows but thinks its not true but anyway Tim said that they rehearsed London Calling the other day and it sounded fu'cking brilliant. So I guess it is going to happen. They are not coming to Australia so I won't be able to see them.

[guns_of_brixton]

What magazine was it? It sounds like the exact fake story posted on here.

[white_riot]

Blunt Magazine.

[guns_of_brixton]

Sounds like a tabloid or a mag for potheads.

[Skidmark Steve]

is Tim going to sing? i hope not. his voice gets worse and worse as the years go on

[JohnXDoe]

The Clash are not reforming with Tim Armstrong.

Bite your tongues. :p

[RIP Ian Curtis]

I agree with Steve, before the bourbon and 50 marlboros a day voice was cool, in stuff like ruby soho, but now it just pisses me off.

"some of my friends sell records, some of my friends sell drugs"
what a smelly wanker he is. Just as well Metal Hammer gave the transplants album 1 out of ten, serves him right.

[CombatRock]

Thats, a first, a Clash fan who dosent agree with their message.

[CombatRock]

"some of my friends sell records, some of my friends sell drugs".
HAHAHHA I heard that song the other day and started laughing at that part.

[AIRIC]

I saw a sailboat called London Calling today.

[redstainedeyes]

Weird...where do you live?

[AIRIC]

It was on Lake George.

[CombatRock]

Why does every tv show/movie play London Calling, when the movie star goes to london. Surley there is more songs that mention london.

[RIP Ian Curtis]

Thats, a first, a Clash fan who dosent agree with their message.


I also like The Dead Kennedys. And on the other hand, I like Skrewdriver.
I don't really care about the politics as long as I like the songs.

[CombatRock]

Yea, I always about a bands message after what they sound like.

[Coma_Girl]

i missed this thread. :wave:

I'm going to new york soon, and I want to see the wall where they painted Joe.

[CombatRock]

If you go make sure to take some pictures.

[Lazybassplr56]

I've seen it. It's pretty good.

[CombatRock]

What part of New York is it at?

[Ghostfire3]

Yeah, I've seen pictures of the wall. Tim Armstrong was there when it was being painted.

[JohnXDoe]

What part of New York is it at?

I think in the East Village. Is this it:

It's not what I expected. A bit cartoonish for my taste, perhaps. Although I like the Know Your Rights! thing at the bottom quite a lot.

[Flagjacket]

That's pretty cool. But yeah, it looks too much like a cariacture.

It's still pretty cool. Those artists in the city are amazing.

Yeah, I agree that it looks cartoonish, but it's still a cool tribute.

Was that the wall where they filmed the video for Redemption Song

[CombatRock]

Yea, thats the one. I plan on going to new york for my senior trip, and i will camp out by that wall.

[RIP Ian Curtis]

I love the story about the "London Calling" video shoot. With that DJ from the Roxy standing in a boat in the rain all day. Came out with a fu'cking cool clip. Even if that DJ has gone on to say the hippies were punk and hip-hop is the new punk, I'll forgive him beacuse of "London Calling" and selling drugs to Bob Marley.

[JohnXDoe]

This DJ you speak of? Was that Don Letts? Also can someone tell me if the bonus material at the end of the London Calling 25th Anniversary Edition album is worth a download. Were these tracks taken from the "White Tapes" I've read about?

Yea, thats the one. I plan on going to new york for my senior trip, and i will camp out by that wall.
That sounds great. Say 'hi' to Joe for us. That mural has grown on me a bit. I think Joe would of liked it. He was a character. I listened to Streetcore yesterday and this evening. Good record. I like the way Joe was maturing creatively. Although perhaps he should of kept his hands off Redemption Song.
:smash:

[RIP Ian Curtis]

Don Letts! That's the bloody name. Sorry, I forgot it and I was hoping someone would bail me out.

[redstainedeyes]

It must be Don Letts, as he's the only DJ who works in film, was involved with The Clash and punk rock in general, and sold drugs to Bob Marley.

[RIP Ian Curtis]

The Roxy was so cool. Even cooler because fu'cking Crass weren't allowed there.

[JohnXDoe]

Yes, that is quite the Reseme'. :)

I hate crass.

I wish i had some money, there is so much Clash/Joe stuff i want.

[JohnXDoe]

Can anyone answer my question about downloading the stuff I posted here:

http://www.musicianforums.com/forums/showpost.php?p=9911296&postcount=4671

I'm paying for it, so I would like some opinions before I do. And the song preview thing at the site isn't working for me. Thanks.

[CombatRock]

I wore my clash shirt to school today and some teacher started singing "Rock the Casbah" during passing periods.

[white_riot]

lol, your teacher must be pretty cool. Was it your DIY Shirt.

[CombatRock]

It wasnt my teacher, i wish she was. It was the one with the band on it, black and red. My myspace has it, and i swear one of these days i will post pictures of my DIY clash shirt.

[JohnXDoe]

So no one has heard the bonus material on the London Calling 25th Anniversary Edition?

Someone?

Anyone? :smash:

[CombatRock]

Oh i have, i own it.

[JohnXDoe]

Oh i have, i own it.

Well that's nice to know, Combat Rock. It brings great joy to me. BUT HOW THE HELL IS IT!. I asked days ago, man. :upset:

Is it worth me spending some of my song credits on? And are these the "White Tapes" I've read about? Tell me what you know, dammit! :p


/ patience has run out

[JohnXDoe]

^Forget it. I just downloaded it. Thanks for the input, eveyone. :rolleyes:

[CombatRock]

hahah sorry man. Do you like it?

[JohnXDoe]

^ Ah, that's ok. Maybe if I hadn't been calling the Vanilla Tapes the White Tapes I would of gotten some feedback. But yeah, I like it. The band sounds young and eager and in some cases a bit unsure of themselves. London Calling sounds real tentative and the lyrics are interesting. It's a nice glimpse of the Clash as a work and band in progress. I haven't heard it all as I just added it to my playlist and am going to bed soon. But I'll get around to it tommorow. I'm actually listening to London Calling, which I went ahead and dowloaded along with the bonus stuff. I have it already, of course. But I read that this edition was remastered and cleaned up a bit. Maybe a bit of remixing? Whatever the case, it sounds great.

[Anti-Prefix]

I hate crass.

I wish i had some money, there is so much Clash/Joe stuff i want.

Why do you hate Crass?

I like them way better than Clash.

[CombatRock]

They sound like a marching drumline, and there singer is annoying.

[guns_of_brixton]

Lonesome Me is a cool song and I remember there being a Bob Dylan cover somewhere on there.

And I don't hate Crass, I just don't like them very much.

"They said that we were trash, well the name is Crass not Clash!"

Lonesome Me is the countryish song right.

I can't stand Crass, there's a fine line between "raw punk" and "unprofessional crap"

[Culture Shock]

That's what he gets for calling Crass unprofessional crap!

[i_am_zombie_jesus]

The Clash are amazing...But I havent heard anything by the other bands.

Also sorry if its been mentioned why did Mick Jones leave The Clash?

[JohnXDoe]

The Clash are amazing...But I havent heard anything by the other bands.

Also sorry if its been mentioned why did Mick Jones leave The Clash?

He just walked out, I think. Perhaps before he was asked to leave. Apparently he was an insufferable prick at the time and just wasn't talking with any of them. Not really a part of things anymore. He says he regrets the way he was, and I believe him. He seems changed. But at the time, by all accounts, he was literally impossible to be in the same room with, much less in the same band with. And he had been that way for years. So I think the whole thing just sort of fell apart and he walked. Right out of rehearsal one day and never looked back. And no one went looking for him, either.

[white_riot]

I thought Joe told him to leave the band because he was acting to much like a rock star and such.

[guns_of_brixton]

I thought Joe told him to leave the band because he was acting to much like a rock star and such.

Thats exactly it. Joe later regretted the decision.

[CombatRock]

Wonder what would have happend if Mick never left?


In my journlaism class, there is a like this colage (sp) of newspaper clipping and one of them says "carrer opprotunities".

[JohnXDoe]

^^ I just watched the last part of Westway To The World. Apparently Joe and Paul had enough and wanted Mick gone. So when Mick showed up to rehearse Joe told him so. Mick then looked at Paul and asked if he agreed, and Paul said yeah. And that was it. Joe and Paul say their was no communication with Mick at this time and they wouldn't even speak when in the same room. And he was always late or simply didn't show up for reheasals. Plus he didn't want to tour. And when he did show up Joe say's he was like "Elizabeth Taylor in a filthy mood." He says Mick was intolerable and impossible to work with or be around. Mick says he had no "control" and would always push things further and further until people were sick. This is one of my favorite parts of Westway To The World when Mick gets choked up about that time and what he used to be like. He seems almost embarrassed. He seems very pleasant and I'm sure he is. I can't really imagine him as the venomous snake he apparently was.

[CombatRock]

Yea thats a good part in Westway.


What do you think would have happend to The Clash if they didnt kick mick out?

[JohnXDoe]

Yea thats a good part in Westway.


What do you think would have happend to The Clash if they didnt kick mick out?
That's a good question. I was always under the impression the songs Joe sung were his and the ones Mick sang were his own, also. Although credits went to Strummer/Jones, I thought they did it like Lennon/McCartney did it for the sake of getting even royalties? But on this board I have read Mick did the music and lyrics for his songs as well as the music for Joe's. Perhaps the door swung both ways a little? I really don't know.

Whatever the case, I think with Mick the Clash could of continued and kept growing artistically/creatively. They were a great band and their work was not finished. But if Cut The Crap is a true indication of how much Mick actually did contribute creatively, then him leaving killed the Clash. That album is fairly poor by any standard. But even had it been good the band was still different. On Westway they talk about how the beginning of the end was actually Topper leaving. How it cut into the chemistry and dynamic of the band. And then with Mick gone as well, well, where's the Clash in that. It would of been just a matter of time, anyway.

I've heard live bootlegs of the Clash '85. One from the Long Beach Arena that is literally great. Three guitar players, Joe is on fire, and all sounds good. But I suppose with only 2 out of 5 guys being original members it was more like a Clash cover band of sorts. If Mick had stayed I think they would of lasted right into the ninties. But as it is I suppose their time just came and went.

[JohnXDoe]

I'm listening to Give 'Em Enough Rope at the moment. Truly great album.

[Skidmark Steve]

^^ A Clash cover. The people on there are pretty random. Anyone here or own this? I liked the Rancid cover

[JohnXDoe]

I just sampled a few cuts. Not great from what I've heard, but not bad, either. I'm interested to hear more when I get home. The Clash can be a good band to cover I suppose if you don't try to copy them. The artists I sampled certainly didn't try to do that. Sort of weird listening to it. Thanks for the link. Moby doing Straight To Hell? That should be interesting, to say the least.

[CombatRock]

That's a good question. I was always under the impression the songs Joe sung were his and the ones Mick sang were his own, also.

Mick wrote all most all of the songs (instrument wise).

Mick is a talented guy if all that music is his. I really didn't know. Did Joe write the lyrics Mick sang? Or perhaps some of them? Listening to all the live Clash stuff I've been listening to lately has made me appreciate Mick more. No wonder Cut The Crap was so bland and generic. That is considerable and diverse talent. So would you say Mick wrote the whole of Sandinista? Musically speaking.

oh your so lucky!! For my birthday we are going to order me a pizza, since they ship.

Joe seems like one to hate pizza for some reason. I cant imagine joe eating pizza.

[guns_of_brixton]

Joe was a fish and chips guy.

I'm kind of confused with something... I'm not 100% that Topper recorded all the drums / percussion stuff on Combat Rock... can anybody help with this?

[CombatRock]

I think he recorded drums, he wrote all the Casbah and im preety sure he recorded all those parts him self, i could be way wrong though. Now think about it, i think im lying to yall.

[guns_of_brixton]

I'm pretty sure he only recorded the drums and pianner for Casbah, and yea, I bet he did all the drumming on Combat Rock.

[BillyBonebrake]

Hi. Um, does anyone here like Joe's solo stuff? I like it a lot. My favorites are Eartquake Weather and Streetcore. Streetcore is smooth and cool. And his cover of Redemption Song is really good. So what about you guys?

His solo stuff is great, somtimes i like it more than the Clash.

[BillyBonebrake]

His solo stuff is great, somtimes i like it more than the Clash.

Yeah. On Streetcore it amazes me how different his voice sounds from when he was with the Clash. I mean he still sounds like Joe, but different. On some of the tracks I wouldn't even guess it was him. Or maybe it would sound vaguely familiar, but I still wouldn't guess him. He actually became a better singer all those years he was away. I like Ramshackle Day Parade and Silver And Gold off that album. I like all of it. But those two cuts stand out right now. How do you feel about Mick's old band, BAD. And how do some of you others feel about BAD, also.

[CombatRock]

My joke about BAD, is they sound like their name. Im not much for them.

[white_riot]

I have Streetcore and i think it is pretty good. I would really like to get another one of the meskies albums. BAD are not that bad. Their film clips are pretty cool.

[CombatRock]

Same here, the only Joe Strummer and the Meskie album i own is Streetcore, i would get another one but im broke, like always.

[white_riot]

Does anyone know anything about the other members in The Meskies and what they are doing now.

[CombatRock]

Nope, i cant even name one of the member haha.

[white_riot]

Isn't one guys name Tryonne Dogg or something like that. I don't really know.

[CombatRock]

Yea i think so, Tryonne Dog sounds very familiar. Stuid name by the way.

[(r)evolution]

Yeah. On Streetcore it amazes me how different his voice sounds from when he was with the Clash. I mean he still sounds like Joe, but different.

And you guys will never guess what I read in Rolling Stone. They were talking about Kate Moss doing cocaine and the second paragraph went something like this: "The part that shocked me the most about this is that Kate's party includes Mick Jones of the Clash ,one of my boyhood idols. Yes, the same punk who sneered at coke-head rock stars on "Jail Guitar Doors" is now rocking his chemical casbah with the ultimate "treat-me-nice-party-girl" Kate Moss. Somewhere, Joe Strummer is laughing"

hah.
