they're just as badass as the sex pistols, they're good songwriters, good musicians (which is a rarity amongst punkers), hell of showmen, they're r'n'r, they're punk, they play ska, reggae, they're eighties, the drum'n'bass section beats any of the electronic crap of today, and they could produce this live, tell me one band in this whole frickin world that was/is all of that! i've seen paul mccartney and the stones live, i'd trade both of those gigs to see these guys live just once...
@tolvajakos This is my experience, so I don't want to spoil The Clash for you as they are my favourite Punk band along with the Stranglers. I saw The Clash on the 1st tour they did of the U.K. in 77/78 in Edinburgh Odeon. The Slits were supporting them, I thought the Slits were great... on come the Clash and whether it was a bad soundcheck or they were feeling the worse for wear as they were near the end of tour. I have to say I wasn't impressed by their playing that night, outasynch
@B0rnles13 Well, unfortunately I will never know if they are only good on studio recordings or live as well (live recordings never give back the live experience). Could have been that they were just you know, putting more emphasis on attitude, than on accuracy, or could have been that they did too much partying the previous day, or could have been that they just weren't prepared for the big stage just yet. Or maybe they weren't the best live. Whatever, I would have loved to check it out though.
@tolvajakos Oh, don't get me wrong, I'm glad I managed to see them, who am I to judge the way they were playing, also I think I was sober when The Slits were on.
I know what you mean about "checking it out" I never got to see the Sex Pistols, I knew a couple that did, and also had the bootleg LP called S.P.O.T. Sex Pistols On Tour which had all the "Bollocks" tunes on and a few more if I remember.
@tolvajakos I do agree that they were great when they were on form, I only saw them that one time, and maybe drink played it's part in my experience. I saw a Clash tribute band called Take The Fifth or 5ifth about 4 years ago, they could play all their songs magnificently, Mick Jones and Billy Bragg came on for the last few songs. worth going to see if only for the live music of the Clash.
@nimatek667 i must agree. they're way better, more varied, more alive, and ahead of their time than the stones, the beatles, not to mention any of the punk bands of the era (including sex pistols). i don't even get it how they not get credit for all that, just look at all the one-hit-wonders, and even big stars of today covering a shitload of their songs, or just simply taking their tunes and rhytms, cause they're way better than any of the computer-created crap they can think of today...
Great job! it's a pleasure listening to The Clash watching thist video, just... thanks!
