[QUOTE=white_riot]Guns of Brixton, London Calling, Rudie Can't Fail and Clampdown are probally my favourites on London Calling.[/QUOTE]

I like Train In Vain, Clampdown, The Card Cheat, and Rudie Can't Fail best.

CombatRock 06-04-2005 04:19 PM

[QUOTE=Coma_Girl]me too, london calling is a good song when you havent heard it 10000 times. Same for clash city rockers.[/QUOTE]

Clash songs i skip are, Clash City Rockers, London Calling, Jimmy Jazz, Lovers Rock ect..

Aeaon 06-04-2005 04:21 PM

I never skip any clash song on any CD. But then again, Combat Rock isn't quite as good as other Clash releases. Doesn't sound punk enough.

Aeaon 06-04-2005 04:21 PM

[QUOTE=combatrock*bass]Jimmy Jazz[/QUOTE]


Jimmy Jazz is a very good reason to like London Calling though. :upset:

CombatRock 06-04-2005 04:23 PM

It looks like them circa 1982. But even barely then.

CombatRock 06-05-2005 02:55 AM

Joe and Mick look like 82, but Paul would be before 80 cos of the bass. but what do those artist know.

Yeah, seriously.

Something I've noticed about The Clash, on most of their albums there's a really "emotional" song on it. Their S/T had "White Man In Hammersmith Palais", GEER had "Stay Free," London Calling had "The Card Cheat", Combat Rock had "Straight To Hell", etc.


Just an observation.

sketchyjoe 06-05-2005 12:55 PM

[QUOTE=Canadian_Guy]Their S/T had "White Man In Hammersmith Palais",[/QUOTE]
Only the US version. The original didn't.

And that's not a very emotional song if you look at the lyrics.

white_riot 06-06-2005 12:40 AM

Joe's favourite team was Chelsea, I think?

Brain Toad 06-06-2005 12:41 AM

It'd be funny if they liked Cricket.

white_riot 06-06-2005 12:46 AM

I wish they liked Cricket. It is my favourite sport.

CombatRock 06-06-2005 12:55 AM

whats cricket?

Brain Toad 06-06-2005 12:56 AM

[QUOTE=combatrock*bass]whats cricket?[/QUOTE]

Really long game that baseball was based off of.

CombatRock 06-06-2005 01:01 AM

hm.. baseball is preety boring does that means its even more boring?

sketchyjoe 06-06-2005 03:17 AM

Yes.

white_riot 06-06-2005 03:49 AM

Cricket is a great sport.

Does anyone own the Essential Clash DVD. If so is it any good.

:amaze:

[QUOTE]i know the clash were "football hooligans" wonder if they liked any other sports?[/QUOTE]

If I remember... Mick and Topper were good, Joe was ok, but Paul was terrible at soccer :).

[QUOTE]Go Cubs[/QUOTE]

white_riot 06-06-2005 03:39 PM

On my London Calling DVD it says something about there matches they use to have. Paul was violent, Joe was ok but never gave up and Mick and Topper were good i think.

CombatRock 06-06-2005 05:16 PM

white riot is right.



is viva joe strummer good? what is it about?
