"White man in Hammersmith Palais" is a great early Clash track. Nice sound. Starts off at an all night reggae gig with artists from Jamaica, then explores the state of the UK at the time.

Can tell from your handle you're a Clash fan.

They were nicknamed "The only band that matters" for a reason. They woke up an entire generation to what was going on in the world and influenced everyone from U2 to rap groups like Public Enemy. Every major rock band of the past 40 years really wants to be The Clash. It doesn't have to be for the channel, the video for Tommy Gun is worth watching on your own time. Watching Joe Strummer sing his heart out will make you an instant fan.

I love early Clash but my favorites are "Clampdown", "Armigeddian Time", and "Bankrobber/Robber Dub".

Excellent choices, sir.

The Clash “Magnificent Seven” is 🔥! Loved dancing to “Rock the Casbah” back in the day😊

The Clash. These guys opened my eyes to what was going on in the world when I was in 7th grade. I’m 53!!! White Man in Hammersmith Palais is my favorite. These guys and RATM, my 2 daily got to play bands.

Saw the Clash live 7 times, I’m 57 now 🤣 they knew how to do a gig, absolutely f electric, never forget them 👍

Have to say about the drums the drumming of Topper an't they just fucking mind blowing drumming

Sex Pistols, The Clash and The Damned are the three big iconic UK Punk bands. I would recommend, The Damned's - New Rose, Plan 9 Channel 7, Neat Neat Neat or Melody Lee. Love all three of the bands mentioned, but The Damned will always be my top choice.

Rudy Can't Fail is my fav clash track. Clash has a ton of great songs.

One of my favorites from the clash, but so many other great ones!! Check out the English civil war from the same album or Brand New Cadillac from London Calling album!!!

My favorite was always Spanish Bombs about 20 years later in an interview I heard Joe say that was his favorite. So OK I'm proud of that!😄

Spanish Bombs is my favourite song ever.

Alright! At last this fav of mine, and often overlooked, track get the credit it deserves. You recognize quality music and messages when you hear them. Nice one Teez and thanks who ever requested this!

London calling a huge banger by The Clash !! 🇬🇧

Saw them at Bonds in Times Square '81. The had a graffiti artist named Futura marking up the backdrop throughout the show. Amazing band. Thanks for going deep and not just their major hits. Love to hear more. Spanish Bombs, Police and Theives, The Magnificent Seven...

This was Terry Chimes, wasn't it?

One of my favorite Clash songs. Their first 2 albums were the best, then they started down the reggae road like almost every other punk band did. The Anarchist band Crass mentioned them in one song: "The name is Crass/not Clash/ they can stuff their punk morality/ it's them that take the cash". All of this aside, I also like Clash's version of "I Fought the Law" and "The Guns of Brixton".

These guys toured the US & NYC HipHop was the new shit on the street coming from the So called no go areas....blew these guys away along with the gay scene in the clubs & they really are fucking the real Kings of there era Joe Strummer great lyricist & just unbelievable LIVE !!

React to "Know Your Rights" if you wanna hear a song that inspired the likes of Public Enemy and Rage Against The Machine. I don't think anybody has done that one yet.

thank you sir, I love this tune. Hard to believe the Clash were hugely influenced by their love of Reggae.

That's what I loved about Joe. He really meant what he said in songs like this. And it was right. And no one else was saying it. Here we are 50 years later and there are still not enough anti-war voices.

London Calling was Rolling Stones album of the 1980s decade, beating out heavyweight albums like Beat It.

The Only Band That Matters

Great tune! Just discovered your channel. Appreciate the deep selections. Some Clash recommendations: White Man in Hammersmith Palais, Hate and War, Guns of Brixton, Rudie Can't Fail

Topper drumming is off the hook. Makes this song a monster.

They wont block it. They never would

Guns of Brixton, for sure.

okay, so let's agree about the price And make it one jet airliner for ten prisoners boats and tanks and planes, it's your game kings and queens and generals all learn your name I've seen all the innocents, the human sacrifice and if death comes so cheap then the same goes for life

The clash motto... The only band that matters.

Dude I know I'm killing you commenting on all these songs but man your hitting on so much music that I've loved so much for so long, if you dig this once again I've got some songs for you to check out. The clash are fuckin timeless amd amazing they were 1st band to ever take a dj out on tour with them as a opening act, this was in the early 80s late late 70s. They had been spending time in New York and got pulled into the early early scene which was the beginning of the hip hop scene, it was seen on some of their later stuff. The Guns of Brixton, this songs lyrics are as hard as any gangsta rap that came out, it's one of the 1st songs I ever noticed that had any kind of influence from what would become hip hop. They were big reggae freaks and it shows in alot of their music really a political band as well. Armageddon Time is a fuckin amazing song Bank robber Police and Thieves Train in Vain Rock the cashbah Should I stay or should I go Jimmy jam I fought the law Dude they have so many great great songs. You cant go wrong with the Clash London Calling is awesome, actually I have the album cover of London calling tattooed on my arm, they were big influence on my music, but I'm a big fan of the 70s british punk and glam stuff. Anyway check it out it's worth the listen. The magnificent 7 This is radio clash Clampdown White man in hammersmith palais Know your rights

you get it man

Great song, great reaction. I’m gonna subscribe - Listen to The Clash’s ‘straight to hell’ off of their Combat Rock LP

If you like Tommy Gun, listen to Death and Glory. That is top of the heap!!!

Rock the Casbah!!💙💙🙌🏼🙌🏼
