Re: The Clash observations thread.
I'm gonna let the domain for topperheadon.com expire/not renew it when the time comes because (a.) its cybersquatting and (b.) I'm too stupid and incompetent to create or run it. If any of you want to make a website for Topper (ideally how he would like it) I suggest staying away from the .net route? Idk, I'm horrible at computer science and obviously couldn't get in hold of his management, so yeah.

Re: The Clash observations thread.
I have a vague recollection of reading about that somewhere however never heard it until today. It reminds me of where Mick shouts "Johnny Johnny" at the end of "Protex Blue".

Re: The Clash observations thread.
I wonder if Teddy B could shed some light on Mick's connection to this.
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.
Re: The Clash observations thread.
Apparently recorded at Wessex studio with Topper involved as well.

Is it worse than normal? I mean that boot is particularly noticeable because he is mixed so loud.

Good tune!

Yeah maybe that's it. It does seem a little worse to me though. He hits a lot more dead notes from what sounds like muting them with his right hand.
