The Clash Peel Session

Post by YoungParisians »

I found this snippet in UK magazine, Music Week, from July 1998. It indicates New Millennium Communications licensed a deal to release The Clash's unfinished 1978 Peel session. I looked up the label on Discogs and didn't see any release. The snippet doesn't firmly say they're releasing that session but the quote ("a real gem") and photo seems implied.

Is this just ambiguous reporting or was this release actually in the works in the late 90s?

More info on the session:
John Peel Wiki gives info on the aborted session: https://peel.fandom.com/wiki/Clash#Sessions

He played the Rude Boy songs a few times. Could it possibly mean them?
