I liked the hat year. Was that '79 or '80?

I like people who unconditionally (albeit with some criticism) love The Clash from 1976 to 1985. However, my vote goes to 1982 for two reasons: because no one has voted for it and because I like this picture

82 was pretty good although to me felt that they were trying, up to that point seemed to be what they wanted to wear.

Paul's hate makes me think he's waiting for his date, Blossom.

Is it me or did the band seem to look healthier and more muscular in 1981-2?

No.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

I was waiting for that. Yeah, I meant Joe and Paul really.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board
