Clash - New Music Interview - 1982

[ManFromMelbourne]

Mick`s on speed and Joe`s on heroin. That`s why Joe`s wearing the sunglasses, so you don`t see his eyes.

[perkinso1]

Is Joe just tired and bored? Was he a drug user as well? Who knows his bio better than me?

[MrRazot]

@perkinso1 he was a heavy drug user but relied he would die from it so he just tried to control it.

[xMyxCleverxSleazoidx]

Haha Mick Jones is brilliant...

I still find him oddly sexy and charming as anything.

Poor Joe, he's not having fun is he?

[9999bigb]

It's sad watching this because you can really see how the band wasn't into it anymore - especially Joe and Mick. They'd just fired Topper for his heroin addiction and were about to break up the band when Rock the Casbah went to number one, forcing them to re-hire Terry Chimes to play drums and go back on the road. By the end of this year (82) Joe and Mick were barely talking to each other.

[76sagi]

mick looks a little bit high

[PoireauMan68]

[LondonCalling924]

The Only Band That Matters

[StrummerLivesxxx]

Absolutley LOVE mick jones.

[madriot1977]

I think he means "Clash on Broadway", something like a documentary about the Bond's appearance in 81, it's also here on Youtube

[ClashCityRockers0]

HellW10 maybe?

[ClashCityRockers0]

Mick Jones LoL "prostitution"

[Luanaclash]

Mick is so funny!

[Luanaclash]

Mick

you are my life...i live just for you...

I´ll meet you onde day...!

[buderick23]

Did the film ever come out??

[arseth13]

hahaha, mick and joe are great

[alpinestars48]

No in the 1981 they said they have a responsibility to the fans concerning their music and making sure those who wanted to see them got to, they didn't mean they wanted to be anyone's parent or babysitter

[midgy]

"Pop Flop." Hhaha. Nice one Jones ;)

[bombdigidy0]

mick jones i hilarious "prostitution company" LOL

[Stumpjumper14]

at 1:23 mick jones is trying not to laugh i think

[ProiteXswe]

no he is puting down something

[308965]

Maybe Joe is just annoyed with her stupid questions?

"...mostly drinking with him."

Too f-ing funny!

[ohhxdahhling]

haha, and I love how straight-faced he is when he says it.

[punkinchavland]

1981 they say they have a responsibility to the fans and they have to stick to it basically. here they say they have a responsibilty to themselves,

big change in 1 year

[frcfed]

Could they possibly have a responsibility to both themselves and the fans?

[MCKRUSH]

Mick is completely spliffed here. Joe's completely pissed on ... something.

[neilzthered]

Great footage...as a Canadian, I have to apologize for Jeannie Bekker....stupid questions...

[MsGORGONS]

@neilzthered where is she now?

[adsers]

again great rare footage! cheers!

[JoesRamone]

"what is the question?..." does Joe have a terrible hangover?

[drummer78]

Just miserably depressed about the state of the band. At the height of their success they were internally falling apart.

[nadja019]

This was the beginning of the end.

[ummxduhh]

Another thing, I think I've seen Joe wear that little red jacket thing in like, five videos. :]

[fashionvictim83]

Yea, Joe's wasted in this, hehe

[cj93070]

no they were still argueing around the time of making combat rock 82

[ummxduhh]

Dear old Mick sounds like he's just trying to be nice when complimenting the Who.

[drummer78]

He and Joe were friends with Pete Townshend. Townshend even got on stage with The Clash in early 1980. I am sure Mick probably wasn't that into The Who's records of 1981-82. Then again, even The Who weren't that into Face Dances and certainly It's Hard.

[strummer101]

wow Joe ! great rare footage.Joe doesnt seem happy with Don Letts, or anything for that matter.

[ElvarPondo]

Nice one, love this not the usual rock star ACT.. Just two normal guys falling apart.

[DuLeth91]

i fucking love this, they're both amazing!!

[LucyStag]

Weird. Poor Joe seems to be totally depressed, or at least having an awful day. And why are there like five helicoptors in the backround?

[MrsSuratt]

Uh, depressed? Flat-out wasted seems more like it.

[AikeaCine]

I think the helicopters are actually cable cars, but i thought the same initially. Joe's kinda got an Ian Dury haircut goin on there, shame they caught him on an off day. By '82 things were pretty volatile between these two, so i'm surprised to see them together. Nice all the same though.

[benthemuffin]

Things really got bad between them around 84. They were alright at this point.

[HarryTheHippo]

Mick got the boot or left in 1983 after the US Fest. Whatever is the truth you hear.

Joe is 2 sheets to the wind! LOL!

[drummer78]

No they weren't. Read "Last Gang in Town". They were having troubles even as early as 1981.

[vonhasselbach]

They're cable cars at the CNE (Canadian National Exhibition).

[PBANDSNOW]

@vonhasselbach yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa cne!!!

[PoireauMan68]

@AikeaCine i was told by some who interwieved gallagher that jones and strum were travellin' with their own means of transporation...separate...but that could only be 1980/81 for big US tours. They weren't talking to each others much :"lost communication/we fell to egos"...THATS that...you don;t rewrite history. I THINK both felt terrible about it retrospectivily but Jones was on the ejectable seat.

[yetaca]

I have the same hat as the Mickster is wearing ... pretty proud of that :)

[MyFairyKing]

Joe sounds like something bad happened... or something like that. Like he just got horrible news or what not. And I don't think I've ever seen Mick talk so much...

[furiousmarco]

and mick is stoned

[gabysalter]

Joe looks so far away! Wow...

[firehehe]

Nice one! I've never seen this interview until now.

[freka01]

OHHH It's very amazing!!!!
