It is curious that a photo of Joe Strummer with Richard Norris was used for the cover of the box 002.

https://twitter.com/MrRichardNorris/sta ... 7044310016


By the way, could someone transcribe the lyrics of the 2 versions of War cry.
thanks
Richard Norris was edited out of the pic for 002.

I have used that pic for the Strummer/Norris tracks in the box set I'm working on.

This alone will make this set of yours incredible! This fills a gap in the wilderness years leading up to the Mescaleros period.

I think War Cry with vocals and the alt versions of Road to RNR and Diggin the New from this would have been better inclusions on Vibes Compass than the alt takes of Coma Girl and Moses that aren't really that different. Or London is Burning which was already on 001.

Wolt, I'm working on a Strummer box set which now has 13 disc worth of stuff. The above Strummer/Norris tracks are one of the discs in the set and have been completely remastered and the songs separated. The tracks used above were interspersed with Joe interviews and used as one long track. Keep an eye over the next couple of weeks as you don't want to miss this upload.

oh that’s awesome!

Yeah I’m trying to pop in more often. My broken brain gets such time loss from the ADHD that I had no idea how long it had been I was away.

Oh you're that Jon Wolter. 😉

Doing these box sets helps my crazy bursts of energy from being bipolar. Good luck with the ADHD.

According to this post by Richard Norrris, there are still songs and unreleased versions of his recording sessions with Joe. I wonder if someday all this material will be released, because I really appreciate this Joe's era.

Maybe we have to wait to 003 Box

This is new to me. More music from Joe Strummer and Richard Norris, very much in the style of War Cry.

At the beginning of the song and other parts, Joe can be heard.

It's new to me too. So interesting to see all the random stuff Joe was up to.

I've been in a real Meskies mood lately but am trying not to listen to all these rarities so they are fresher when Marky's boxset drops. :cool:
