Great song by the Clash

So many great songs by the Clash! Wanted to see them on their run on Broadway (Bonds) in 1981 but it was such a crazy scene that even as a 22-year old, decided not to go in!  Went to Bonds with a friend, was living in NYC and we both agreed that it was too crazy!  Oh well.  When they did their run at Bonds, I did see Strummer and Jones walking up Broadway, near Lincoln Center, clad in their black leather clothes.  I'll never forget it.  I did get to see them in 1982 at Pier 84, but the open venue didn’t do them justice.

I always though the Clash were so apt at identifying and clarifying social issues in a minimalist fashion. Much like Merle Haggard could do.

@simao Great Merle stuff. 

I'm also listening lately to this band.

Always one of my favorites, whether the original by Bobby Fuller Four or the Clash's great cover. I also love their song 'Jail Guitar Doors'.  The Clash do a lot of great crime-related songs...
