I really love Joe with the Mescaleros, and in general in that period of his career... This is an amazing performance with great musicians... They believed in what they were doing and singing about... This is what music should be!
Faith in humanity--that's what Joe gives me . And it's always available in the form of great music, but this performance is just outstanding and shows that intense passion and commitment to his ideals . God, but we need that more than ever nowadays!
I loved The Clash so much when I was a young man, I honestly thought the only way was down after they split. Strummer, indomitable spirit and man of integrity that he was, proved that was not the case. What a genius, what an influence! He talked the talk and walked the walk, an example to us all. So tragic that we've lost him.
THE MESCALERO'S really hit their stride on this track. Listen to the backup vocals, the Mescalero's are almost overpowering Joe.
Joe finaly found the band that could play clash songs to the letter, but make them their own. The originals were even better then anything the clash had done!!!!!!!!!!
