Clash Makes The List

[Marky Dread]

Well, for MSN readers who only know “Rock the Casbah,” I suppose it is a deep cut.

That kind of reminds me of a couple of the Clash FB groups I'm in (I think Hes and Gil might be in some of them too). It's very weird talking to more casual Clash fans who haven't done the DCT thing.

I sometimes feel like a know it all putting people right but I suppose I might as well put my knowledge to use. Someone gave me a load of abuse because I pointed out the "Peel session" that they posted was just an alternate mix of Pressure Drop.

I think it's all in the delivery, and you don't ever come off as condescending as far as I've seen. If people want to remain ignorant, that's on them. But I agree there's no point in belonging to one of those groups if we're not going to let people in on our vast, vast, VAST knowledge. Vast.

Not Strummer News vast, tho. Like, you probably don't know what brand of sody-pop Paul drank on the Take the Fifth tour.

I know the name of his physician was Dr. Pepper.

Stumbled upon this list today of what's supposed to be the "25 underrated deep cuts from legendary bands". Imagine my surprise to see Career Opportunities at number 12.

Hello,

Don't feel bad about possessing knowledge. It's a good thing.

By the way, it's know-it-all.

Know-it-isn't.

Nice pic of Joe there on page one

Seems no list is complete without them these days.

Yeah it's a cool pic. I used it on one of the '78 remasters.
