Track 2 from the London Tabernacle, 16/7/88. Sounds like an old rock and roll song.
Yes not sure that is the correct title it is in the first line of the lyrics. Sounds like a song the 101’ers would have covered.
I will try and find a version on line but not easy deciphering Joe’s lyrics.
Recall this not doing too well in the survivor polls, I love its groove to bits, a great opener to a fantastic album.
It's a solid enough track. Just not very adventurous.
That's exactly it. There's nothing wrong with it, but you expect a bit more from Mick at that point.
I like it but there's lots better on the album.
Applecart is one of Mick's best ever tunes imo.
It's an album I really didn't like at first, because I was expecting more of the same over-the-top sampling and beats, but in time it won me over. I still much prefer the first two albums, but songs like "Applecart" and "Other 99" validated that record.

Mentioned in Reynolds' Rip It Up and Start Again, a collection of songs from the post-No Wave funky "mutant disco" period. The stuff from this scene is so vibrant, just fun and weird, arty without pretension.

Rip It Up and Start Again is a great track.
It's funny, I know it's a reference to Orange Juice, but I always hear in my mind PiL's "Flowers of Romance," which has the lyric, "Start all over again."

I had never really listened to this lot, and only bought it because Mick Jones is the narrator, but I'm glad I got it. His narration certainly makes me smile, and its a good listen.

Behind the dialogue
We're in a mess.
Forces have been looting
My humanity
Curfews have been curbing
The end of liberty
We're the flowers in the dustbin...
No fuchsias for you.
