WHITE RIOT Jimmy Pursey with Helsinki at LMHR Carnival

Jimmy Pursey sings White Riot with Drew McConnell of Babyshambles side project Helsinki at the Love Music Hate Racism Carnival in Victoria Park, London E3 on Sunday 27 April 2008.

Jimmy also sang White Riot with The Clash at the original Rock Against Racism Carnival in 1978.
By his own admission, Jimmy doesn't know the words! But then again, if you watch the old clips of the 1978 gig, Jim didn't really know the words then either!

Strummer may have been gently spinning somewhere, but what the hell, Jimmy was having a good time and it was fun!
