I'll defer to the experts around here, but I know he ran the 82 Paris 'athon. I thought maybe in Salecwiz (sp?)' book, he mentioned another one.
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.

It's just odd perspective, but his left hand looks monstrous.

Surprised there was only a low quality version of Evil Darling on YouTube so I uploaded it with better sound and those great lyrics added.

"she slaughtered 9 fine white chickens"

It was around this time exactly 18 years ago I heard the news. Still a sense of disbelief.

Lonely Mother's Son to Jail Guitar Doors isn't the only 101ers song to resurface in the Clash. Check out Keep Taking the Tablets, which, instrumentally, is pretty much a Clampdown dry run.
