Just want to also express my appreciation to the creator of this video. A year after Strummer left us, I made the best decision of my life--to leave the only place I'd ever lived to try out life in London for a bit. Long story short, even though I had to leave after 14 months, London is with me always. The images here remind me of everything I love about one of my favorite places on earth, and the music never fails to make me feel grateful I got the chance to meet Joe before he was gone.

I've commented on this wonderful montage and song combination previously ,but as I've probably watched it another 30 times since then ,I just had to reiterate just how good it is.Deserves a wider viewing on TV .
EVERY single photo tells an individual story and each viewing induces tears and pride in me at my London upbringing and heritage.
Once again billnori ...many thanks

Truly Inspirational.
When ever i feel down or fed up with the world i put on any of the 3 Lp's by Joe and The Mescaleros and thing's seem that little bit better for it.

I'm a London boy and this is one of my favourite things ever. Not just the tune (Joe you were a genius) but whoever put this video together deserves a hearty slap on the back. It's beautiful. It reminds me of conversations with my late dad.
