West Germany

How many times did the Clash play in West Germany? I know of 2. Hamburg in 1980 and then Dusseldorf in 1984. Are there any others? On another note--being from USA I'm not real familiar but were the Clash well known in East Germany or behind iron curtain during their day? Would have it been possible ...

Re: 1976 Show - October 27th at Barbarella's Birmingham

Gave this a listen today...

Much improved quality--nice job. Is this the entire set? Does anyone know when Police and Thieves was introduced into the rotation?

FWIW-- I kind of like Deadly Serious.

Re: Studio-only tracks / Live-only tracks

I think 4 Horsemen was play live at one of the secret London shows in the summer of 1979.
Overpowered by funk was played in the fall of 1981.

I hear "city wolf" instead of "Virginia wolf" and Tito instead of Fidel.

Re: The Clash live in 1983

I like them on this tour---mainly because of the different set list. They bring back Hate N War, previously mentioned Death or Glory, plus Sound of the Sinners (which doesn't sound great live but was cool to hear).

Top 5 Clash concerts of all time

Which 5 shows are the their best ever? Either due to historical significance or because they were just playing great that night? Doesn't have to have a great sounding recording (or even any recording for that matter)--name your top 5.

Re: Tentative cut the crap early tracklist?

At one time I had this too. I responded to an ad in NME to join a Clash fan club. It took like 6 months to get this--and this sheet is all they sent. No letter about the club or how it works or anything else--just this one page. I just assumed it was a list of song titles--if you notice at the top o...

The Prisoner

One of my favorites. Anyone know the last time it was played live? I presume some time in 1979. Which show has the best live sounding version? The best I've heard is the short snippet from Rude Boy.

Sid's version of My Way

Just saw an Acura commercial that was playing My Way by Sid. Who gets the royalties from that since he is long gone and had no wife, kids, etc??
