These are just fleeting thoughts from the heartland of the UK's colonial dustbin somewhere beyond the wall of sleep. Odd bits of music and so-called worldly wisdom may creep in from time to time. Don't expect too much and you won't feel let down. As ever AI and old age are to blame. I'll just leave it there ...

Not Sorry
I never did like The Clash, admit it, they were a bit shit. Also they just kind of gave me the creeps. Plus there were other much better and more talented bands around at the time that deserved more attention and didn't get it. Anyway RIP Joe Strummer, no hard feelings. Click if you want to read more but in summary, that's all I really have to say about them.

I agree in the main with your views. The Clash did have a few good songs and I enjoyed their debut, "London Calling" and even parts of "Sandanista". But, for me, there was only ever one real punk band. And it wasn't The Clash, The Damned, The Stranglers, Sham 69, The Undertones, Stiff Little Fingers or the Buzzcocks (or the Exploited)...
