[QUOTE]I just purchased The Complete Clash Chord Songbook.


Its awesome , its got all the chords from all the clash songs , even has the fingerings they used on the records.

Also , it tells you to tune slightly flat or sharp for some songs so you can get a closer sound.


Just been learning guns on the roof and cheat. Even when doing the flanging effect on cheat , the chords are dead on.


definantely worth it [/QUOTE]

That sounds really awesome!

Can you play the solo part of White Riot because its like impossible.

guns_of_brixton 05-21-2005 03:57 PM

[QUOTE=combatrock*bass]sean were did you play a white p-bass at? [/QUOTE]

When I was practicing with my band :cool:.

[QUOTE]Can you play the solo part of White Riot because its like impossible.[/QUOTE]

I can kind of play the White Riot solo, its not exact but it still sounds ok.

Oh, and aren't the 3 chords for Guns on the Roof the same as the first three used in Clash City Rockers (E, D, A power chords)? I figured it out myself and thats what I play.

white_riot 05-21-2005 04:25 PM

I'll stick with playing Police and Thieves for now, its the only song i can play good. I know it is very easy but I kinda suck.

Brain Toad 05-21-2005 04:51 PM

I saw Clash albums at Rasputin last night, they were in the Rock section instead of the punk section, I found that intresting.

[QUOTE=White Riot!]123 Simonon owns.



I think I have figured out the clampdown ad-lib words

THE KINGDOM WAS RANSACKED...
THE JEWELS GOT TAKEN BACK
AND A CHOPPER DESCENDS...

...AND HE WAS IN THE BACK WITH
MISSILES GETTIN' IN OUR DUCT TAPE
WHERE THE SPOOL GOES IN...

SITTIN' ON THE BACK HE WAS FACIN'
THE CROWD BUT HIS HEAD
IS A CRICK ALL NIGHT...[/QUOTE]

are you talking about the words at the beginning of the song?

Forest_Fire 05-21-2005 08:16 PM

It's official: Simonon is the best bassist ever.


I wish I had a book with all of the basslines in it. That's be sweet.




It's also official: Yalla Yalla is one of the best Mescaleros songs.

[QUOTE=combatrock*bass]are you talking about the words at the beginning of the song?[/QUOTE]

Yea he is... but I'm pretty sure somebody already figured those out like 40 pages back.

Is there anyone here that owns Clash on Broadway?

CombatRock 05-22-2005 10:28 AM

white_riot 05-22-2005 10:12 PM

I was watching Rude Boy a couple of days ago and for the people who have seen it what do the two black guys have to do with the movie. They kind of just appear and it doesn't make sense.

metty16 05-23-2005 12:26 PM

I have a friend who claims to have 7 gigs of pr0n, which is freakin' insane.


Who wanks off that much? :confused:


101'ers album has got me so excited, man. I don't know if I can wait for the US date, I might import from England.

guns_of_brixton 05-23-2005 04:04 PM

[QUOTE]andy downloaded **** all the time. [/QUOTE]

:naughty:

[QUOTE]Who wanks off that much? [/QUOTE]

Me. :naughty:

To get back on topic, I am going to buy a 101ers album soon.

SlappedByTheClash 05-23-2005 04:10 PM

Ugh.


I just listened to some of those songs on Sandinista! that The Clash really shoudln't have done.(IE the f'ucking Tinkerbell version of Career Opportunities).

Yeah, I REALLY wish they hadn't done that.

Back to Death Or Glory!

guns_of_brixton 05-23-2005 05:12 PM

Yea... the last 5 songs on Sandinista! are pretty terrible.

white_riot 05-23-2005 05:16 PM

I don't have Sandinista, i have only heard one song on it.

white_riot 05-23-2005 05:17 PM

Acually, I have heard 2 songs. Charlie don't surf aint that bad.

sketchyjoe 05-23-2005 05:19 PM

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Sandinista could've been a good 14 track album.

CombatRock 05-23-2005 06:48 PM

Charlie Don't Surf is one of my favorite Clash songs :thumb:.

That's what Joe said in Westway. He said it even would've been good as an EP.

CombatRock 05-23-2005 07:14 PM

i cant stand Charlie Dont Surf. idk mick sounds to much like a girl in that song.

guns_of_brixton 05-23-2005 07:33 PM

You don't like Lover's Rock either... Mick sounds like a girl in that song too.
