If only we could get a genuinely warts n' all book on exactly how much of The Clash was Bernie's baby (& Bernie's baby only)
...as much of a prick that he undoubtedly is, he fascinates me & I wanna know where Bernie's input ends & the band's begins.
To quote your good self, i don't think there's enough there to warrant a book.

A Bernie book would be a great read if it was factual.

Link on previous page of this thread. Don't know about the availability of Combat Ready.

I checked Worldcat, the best dang library search engine. There appears to be one library copy in London. Nothing on Abebooks, either. Gutenberg Bible rare, it would seem.

It was the title until they switched it to GEER. I didn't know that at the time, but it's in one of the Clash or Strummer biogs. Pretty neat alt title for the music IMHO.

In August, Pearlman invited Joe and Mick to San Francisco’s Automat Studios on downtown Folsom Street for final overdubs on the album now called All The Peacemakers (after a line in Police And Thieves).
