Alright! Looks like we're up and running. Where the hell is Combat Rock? This place gets a little sleepy without him. I'm gonna try to find some interesting stuff to post. This Is MX Clash!

What was the name of the song that Joe and the Mescaleros played on Conan?[/QUOTE]

I don't have their first album. I only have streetcore.

So now i have all the Mescaleros' albums :cool:. Right now I'm listening to a sweet bootleg, its the Meskies doing Armagideon Time and it sounds like the Willie Williams version, or I think thats the black dude's name.

I have all the Clash albums, i really dont like Combat Rock that much, exept for a few songs on it, my goal now is to get all the Clash "greatest hits" "live" cds and all that junk, nice to see the thread back up, hello everyone!

I still only have streetcore. :(




Oh well. I don't listen to it that much anymore anyway.

I love streetcore! I can listen to Burnin Streets non stop.

Combat Rock is by no means their best album but I listen to it the most.

I can't stop listening to the live stuff I downloaded awhile ago. And Sandinista still has it's claws in me, too. Streetcore, as well. What a good album that is. Good to see Combat Rock and some of the regulars back. Happy Holidays, everyone.

Anyone get some Clash related stuff for Xmas?

I got a tony hawk game that has white riot on it.

Yeah, that Tony Hawk game is old.

Their self-titled album is incredible. One of my favorite albums ever.

THUG 1, sweet.

Sean who?

[QUOTE=Ghostfire3]Sean who?[/QUOTE]
Sean Penn, dork. :rolleyes:

Guys, I heard that Paul Simonon sang Guns of Brixton because he wrote it..does anyone know of any other songs he sang on?

He has a very interesting voice.

Paul Simonon is so sweet. I looove a lot of his bass lines, such as the ones in London Calling and Brand New Cadillac.

Paul sang... well he "sang" (if you wanna call it that) Red Angel Dragnet, the Crooked Beat, and of course the Guns of Brixton, which he wrote.

And also, Mick wrote all the lyrics to Complete Control.

I am Sean :wave:

Paul is a good bass player. He should stick to bass. I never really liked his vocals. Even for a punk band.

He really knew how to throw down some fat bass on all of the Clash's funk and reggae tunes. Solid all around player, too.

Paul Simonon didn't play bass on the Magnificent Seven. Some guy from the Blockheads did because Paul was acting in a movie when it was recorded.

^Paul acting, lol. He should stick to painting. Joe was a good actor, though. Anyone see some of his movies? Mystery Train was great. Here's a couple of sample lines. Joe plays Johnny:

Johnny: Don't call me Elvis! If you can't use my proper name, why don't you try "Carl Perkins, Jr." or something? I mean, I don't call them "Sam & Dave", do I?

Dave: Hey, man. My name is Dave.

:rolleyes:

Haha.

Lose This Skin is an addicting song. I love it.

ive decided today that london calling shalt never leave my stereo forthe rest of my life.

Now I have to listen to it. Because just the mere mention of it gets it stuck in my head. Swear to God, I [I]love[/I] Sandinista.

Yes, London Calling is all you really need. It has it all. Perfect rock n roll album.

Wow, i didnt know that, and the thing is i always thought that song sounded werid (bass wise), it was trebly, and pauls bass was never trebly, i guess this is why now.

Yea, it doesn't really sound like a P-bass at all.

Oh, and can anyone explain the end of Broadway?

I've been listening to the Mescaleros a lot lately, especially Global A-Go-Go. I love the spacey world music feel of that album. Johnny Appleseed is fantastic (and has a Bob Dylan) reference but I also love Cool 'N' Out, Mega Bottle Ride and especially Bhindi Bhagee.

"It's kinda like....er....er....well..."

^^I'm gonna start getting into all that again. My new music service has all of Joe's stuff. Even the Sid & Nancy and Walker soundtracks. My old one only had Streetcore. And my Joe CD's have come up missing. So I'm pretty cool with my music service right now.

That album rules. I probably like the title track the most, as well as Johnny Appleseed.

I didn't really like that album at first... but I gave it 2 good listens and I really started to like it. Bhindi Bhagee is awesome, probably because it has the "spaciest" feel to it.

[B]And can anyone explain the end of Broadway??? Please :)[/B]

The song Broadway? Which bit?

Isn't there a dvd called Clash on Broadway?
