  • Topper you're the top.

  • :) Wonderful to hear.

  • Topper - You are brave beyond words - You have went through hell and came out the other end - Your drumming for The Clash is unbelievable and you deserve so much credit for their sound - So glad to see you doing your stuff again. The flams you play on the outro of Groovy Times are the best ever put on vinyl. Top of the pops!!!!! :)

  • Glad You're Well Topper !!!

    -In interviews Joe said he 'had to sack you'....

    -But then he carried your picture in his wallet..... - And looked at it every day........

    But in the end, you outlived Joe -Ironic, Huh ?

    -The fans all love you !!

    -Long Live The Clash !!

  • It's kind of funny how the dog looks up at the moment Topper says "by injecting heroin". It's almost like the dog is like, "What!!". Anyway, great to hear the awesome news Topper. You are an inspiration as a drummer and person.

  • god bless topper

    still doesn't get the credit for his drumming he truly deserves

  • You are one lucky man to be alive. You are one of the best drummers of all time, certainly the best punk/jazz drummer ever ever ever. Your work on Sandinista is mind boggling. Wish you all the best! Go out there and PLAY!!!!!!!

  • You go, Topper. Wise words. Take care of yourself now, we love you. Tops FTW! And like MsB said below, Go easy step light stay FREE. <3

  • TOPPER TOPPER!!! Now you need quite smoking ciggeretts

  • TOPS YOU'VE ALWAYS BEEN AN INSPIRATION TO ME. I HAVE MANY ARGUMENTS TRYING TO DEFEND YOU AS THE WORLDS BEST DRUMMER! (but usually win) GOD BLESS STAY HEALTHY AND SEE YOU ON THE WHITE CLIFFS SOON

  • Bless you, Topper. I so admire your courage and honesty.

    I love you man and you are one hell of a great drummer.

  • Topper looks great , and his assessment of treatment was honest. It will , hopefully , encourage others to do as he's done.

  • Take care of yourself, Tops. Such an incredible talent. An AMAZING drummer. You have created some of the most extraordinary, timeless music EVER.

  • God bless you Topper! Ya look great and your dog looks like a great friend. One day I'd love to record with Topper! God bless Joe Strummer!
