Re: Author to the slaughter

They're on the pitch ....they think it's all over...it is now. Wait a minute... The ref's checking the pitch-side monitor... And in an unprecedented move, VAR has demanded that the last two England goals be disallowed! 54 years later, we're now going into extra, extra time... Sadly the pitch-side m...

As the thread Peters out... Don't take you eye off the Ball. I'm sure we can talk some Moore. I think you're Cohen mad. You can Banks on that!

Bassline: Brixton

Nah, just kidding. Good to see Mr Simonon on the oceanic equivalent of the barricades...

When was that, and where? Actually in Greenland? Couldn't quite make it out from the video clip.

Re: jesus

A couple of bucks second hand from Abebooks, ebay or Amazon. Knock yourself out. Marcus, you're not going to get any royalties with a sales pitch like that... Royalties from the sole surviving in print edition (the US one) amount to about $200 a year, so I think I can take the hit. Last Gang was fi...

Re: Any must see Clash sites in London?

"Mick's music interest included the Flamin' Groovies, Iggy Pop & the Stooges, MC5, the Fugs, the Standells, Sharks and the New York Dolls." Really? The Fugs? I didn't know Mick knew of them then. I would think Flamin' Groovies, Stooges, MC5, T. Rex, Sharks, Cream, Kinks, Mott the Hoople, Hollywood ...

Re: Author to the slaughter

finished the book this morning, thought it was a great read overall, but like someone else said, did get a little bit bored by some of the stuff about chord structures and guitar effects, but given it's a book for Clash nuts rather than casual readers, can see that some folk would want to see that....

Re: Any must see Clash sites in London?

Specifically dancehalls, or clubs as well? By the early Sixties, the Roaring 20s and the Flamingo were key clubs for black American GI, West Indian immigrant and white Londoners to mix and influence each others tastes and styles. Ask Bernie Rhodes. He used to hang out at the Flamingo with Richard Co...

Re: Mick and Paul sign up for London Calling movie!

If there ever was to be a sanctioned biopic, The Clash themselves are holding out for Scorsese. Not sure if I should admit this, but some time back, I did send a copy of Last Gang to De Niro at his Tribeca studios set-up, y'know... just in case.... ...and he was interested, really interested. He ph...
