[QUOTE=SlappedByTheClash]Yeah, Bernie (mis)managed Los Speciales after the guys told him to f'uck off.


I thought it was sweet that Elvis Costello produced their record. It should've been Joe though. :angry:[/QUOTE]

To put this all together, my friend thought Elvis Costello was in the Clash, and another friend thinks the Clash sounds like the Specials.


Long Shadow may be the best song Joe ever did, with or without El Clash Combo.

CombatRock 07-19-2005 01:23 AM

i wouldnt say Long Shawdow is his best its good but burning streets is maybe his best (not clash wise).

No, I love that song, but my favorite is Global a Go-Go. I love the choruses.

(I know I'm not Steve, but) In ours they have JS and the Meskies under the punk/ska section. Unfortuneatly, they have about 7 streetcores and none of the others.

It's just under rock, we don't have punk sections.

"Somewhere in my sooooul... there's always rock and roll!"

It may be my new favorite song.

Silvermedalmafia 07-19-2005 11:37 PM

Rock and roll by the velvet underground > all other rock and roll songs

im hooked on the version of White Man you sent me, i like that speed better then the one on the album.

guns_of_brixton 07-20-2005 02:57 PM

I forgot the one I sent you... is it the one where Joe starts talking about 'skaville'? Cause I've got one that's even faster than that. Anyway I like how Mick sings the "white youth, black youth" part.

CombatRock 07-20-2005 02:59 PM

he says nothing about skaville, unless its during the song?

Daniel! 07-20-2005 03:53 PM

I just heard my first 101ers album and I liked it alot. thier version of Junco Partner is the best version I've heard. I didn't have enough money to buy the album though.

CombatRock 07-20-2005 06:40 PM

can anyone send me 101ers Junco Partner? im not that big on the 101ers though there ok though.

guns_of_brixton 07-20-2005 06:42 PM

[QUOTE=CombatRock]he says nothing about skaville, unless its during the song?[/QUOTE]

Yea, its when the harmonica would usually be.


And I think the 101ers Junco Partner is kinda weak.

Brain Toad 07-20-2005 06:44 PM

Joe Strummer is still dead :lol :lol

CombatRock 07-20-2005 07:05 PM

Fine. I didn't want to do it anyway. :sticks out tongue:


Tell us if you like it, travis.

i just found my brother's copy of 'streetcore' (it was in his room with all his other cds, go figure) today and have been listening to it just about non-stop since. Sooooooooooooooooo good!

guns_of_brixton 07-20-2005 08:56 PM

#1! 07-20-2005 09:06 PM

CombatRock 07-20-2005 10:41 PM

Strummerville 07-21-2005 12:33 PM

[COLOR=DarkOrange]Alright![/COLOR] I'm a new guy on these forums. Good to see a dedicated Clash following. Look forward to chatting to you guys more.

One thing though. Should I buy 'Cut The Crap'. I've got all the other records except Sandanista. What d'ya think. I know it's regarded as the worst Clash album so I was just wondering.

Daniel! 07-21-2005 01:39 PM

No, get Sansanista.
