I'm almost 70 and confined to a wheelchair but can move my right leg. I didn't stop stomping my foot (former rock drummer) for almost an hour-and-a-half. Ya!!
He'll ya !! You represent
Go on! I have had a heart a hypertachicardia last year!
Punk forever! Blues forever! Rock for Ever!
I was at a The Clash concert in Genoa, Italy, my hometown, climbing over a wall to enter without a ticket, chased by police dogs. It was 1984, I was 19, now I'm 56 and I will never be able to forget those years, that music. It was all wonderful.
excellent story. What a great moment in your life that must have been. The clash live, what an experience to have.
Sure you were there. Did you go drinking with Joe Strummer too? Maybe a jam with Steve Jones later.
Jub.
😎💥👍🏼
Steve Jones ?
Think you’ll find it was Mick , Steve was in a different band.
So, thanks to 1) whoever it was at the Capitol Theatre who had the bright idea to put these shows up on video screens in the first place--it wasn't exactly SOP at the time; and 2) whoever had the foresight to keep all this video around on whatever fragile media it was on, and 3) whoever's loaded this to TH-cam.
Oh, and I was there.
fuckin history-i totally agree with you
They recorded all the shows at the Capital. It was the promoter
John Scher!!
oi!
John Scher was da man.
50 years is all you got, Joe, but your songs will live forever. Thanks for the tunes, guv.
I can't listen to Complete Control without thinking about listening to it on my walkman over and over again while walking to school. I remember it was winter time with snow and ice everywhere. I was a depressed teen and they gave me life.
Preach sister!

God Bless the Clash. I was wasting away in a Catholic school, trying desperately to find meaning. And then my brother brought home some albums he got from friends outside the school. I was never the same again :)
There are precious few good videos of The Clash doing a good show. This is a gem.
I was lucky enough to meet Joe Strummer after a show one night backstage. We spent an hour talking. What a great person he was. A true gentleman and very funny.
He's one of my idols
@@Trainy2 Mine too. He was so great. Such a super cool person. He made me laugh. I made him laugh as if we'd known each other for years.
You are not wrong.
Full tilt til the last second. Tommy Gun played like it's the opener. Tickets paid for themselves that night. Holy Shit.
I love Mick Jones’ little dances
Incredible band, so many great songs and they played right on the edge of destruction. It's rough and tumble in delivery and thats perfect
Absolutely electric performance from a legendary band right at the top of their game. They don't make 'em like this no more.
Go and see the Killers live
@@seananderson6958 Did you just compare The Killers to The Clash?
@@Rhubarb.and.Crustardlol I liked their version of Romeo and Juliet
One of the few times The Clash playing "Julie's been working for the drug squad" live. Great song and awesome performance here
And he sang it almost perfectly,without messing up the lyrics too!
Joe Strummer...maybe the best frontman I've seen. And there are so many great ones.
Josh Done when did Queen ever support an apartheid. They literally played in front of mix audiences in South Africa. Do your research next time you homophobe clown
@@done1675 Like you say Freddie could multitask but Joe had focus like no other. Legendary.
@Steve Stone That's absolutely true about Joe.
@Steve Stone just fell in love with strummer again even though he's gone lol
@@annetta7793 mick was kind of a frontman also so were they wingmen or frontmen or duet or what? lol
One of the best rocknroll bands of all time
I love how Joe always takes over on bass for "Guns of Brixton!" Paul can't play and sing at the same time (neither can I), so he switches instruments with Joe. Too cool!
As a life long rock bassist, I know exactly what you mean.
@ Part of it, too, is Paul was not an accomplished musician. When they hired him he played no instruments. They taught him the bass.
Joe is a Legend , Killer Bass Line
Honestly tried singing Guns of Brixton & while playing the bassline - not an easy feat. While in my own band, i'm lead vocals & bass (trio of myself, guitar & drummer), & my basslines aren't necessarily complex, but i'm not rooted in just basic playing either (thanks to Paul Simonon xD )
Paul brought a bridge between reggae and punk into the music in the way he developed his playing over the years. Yes, he was new to it when he started, but he was very capable to play those musical bass lines Mick taught him without any problems. Shows that he had the musicality in him. Later he developed a very unique style which is important to TBTQ and he does it perfect with the Gorillaz too, since Damon Albarn has based the Gorillaz music on the Clash-dubpunk receipe
Mickey Gallagher is the secret hero of this, ain't he? Love what the organ adds in those little hits on "Train In Vain" and the way it just stomps on "Clampdown."
He totally fits in and adds that extra depth!
Couldn’t agree more. Their shows with Micky are their best. Should have kept him on for all live shows and studio work.
I never saw them as a punk band.
They were an education in savvy songwriting influenced by all pop, music hall, skiffle, blues, ska, reggae, rockabilly, and what-have-you.
They were tight when playing live and became more precise with every tour.
They were also a history lesson. I learned about the Spanish Civil War, Montgomery Clift, English sociology-political themes, the futility of consumerism, etc. from them.
I feel lucky to have felt their energy in person three times.
Thank you Joe, Mick, Paul, and Topper-my Fab Four!
At the time ( almost like an exam question ) we debated whether they had come to destroy rock and roll or to save it. Not sure I would credit them with raising my social awareness or merely reflecting contemporary contemporary concerns . Anyone aware of history would be acutely aware of the Spanish Civil War .
Mind completely blown watching this. Can NOT turn this off. This is the Clash in their prime; recorded just after London Calling was released. Thanks SO MUCH to whoever is responsible for posting this!!!! Also too: Big props to NYC and the entire east coast fan base who were hip to The Clash long before the rest of the country (recorded in Passaic New Jersey!!! ). Mike -Huntington Beach, Ca.
Rock + Punk + Ska + Soul + Jazz + Funk + Hip Hop + Pop + Skinhead + Rap + Rockabilly + Hard Rock + Hardcore + Reggae = the clash
+Topper Headon + Paul Simonon + Mick Jones + Joe Strummer
yeah i dunno about jazz. Or hip hop. But sure the rest of it.
I feel like Jimmy Jazz counts as jazz, and The Magnificent Seven counts as funk/hip hop
Listing skinhead as a genre or as anything in relation to The Clash is weird to me.
@@josh0g let me guess; you think all skinheads are nazis or some shit
It was around this time that Rolling Stone was giving an interview to The Who's lead guitarist Peter Townsend who said that if The Who was playing in the same town, at the same night as The Clash...he's go to see The Clash.
I went to see the who and the clash and Santana at the Philadelphia jfk stadium in fall of 1982. An epic day .also the clash play in university of Pennsylvania ice hockey arena in August 1981 back to back nights . Crazy hot and fight in the street after the show with local thugs
@@bobzelley5100 Grew up in Philly, not surprised. And at a Clash concert, that's looking for trouble. That sounds like some serious sh*t. Lived on the west coast in 82 and saw some great bands. Some wild music in those days. Great time to be young.
Jon Gilchrist Could you explain why going to a clash concert in Philadelphia is looking for trouble?
@@khye2271 Philly was a rough town back in the day. So was Cleveland, so was Chicago, Clash concerts were a wild scene. It's like the 'Death to Disco' riot in Chicago at the Soldier Stadium in 1980. The whole post punk music scene was no peace and love hippy fest.
Pete was good friends with all the punk guys coming up at that time. He used to go drinking with them and he was one of the few people in the "old guard" of rock that all the punk bands respected because he was doing a lot of "punk" style antics even back in the early to mid '60's. You can look into the history of the song "Who are You" for more information on that - the whole song was him getting wasted at a bar with the sex pistols.
Jones is brilliant on Spanish Bombs
I was 13 growing up in Birmingham, AL when London Calling was released. An older kid in the neighborhood was my conduit to the Clash, first with their debut and then London Calling. I was a huge Clash fan before I could even drive. Unfortunately it also meant I was too young to see them live so this is a real treat to be able to watch years later. I hoped to catch Joe & the Mescaleros at some point but it was not to be (RIP Joe).
I've been listening to Chuck D's Stay Free podcast on Spotify (highly recommended) and revisiting my obsession with all things Clash and realize that in my lifetime, there's probably never been a cooler band and will not be.
I'm totally the same as you; they got my blood moving at like 11 or 12 years old. And then "Rock the Casbah" came out with Combat Rock, fucking forget it. They were awesome. Always wanted to see the Mescaleros, too. Some sounds and vocal styles are just minted once, and that's it.
Just moves from Hartselle. Alabama to Portland Oregon when the Clash played Fridays. Blew my 12 year old mind!
What would Joe have made of UK lockdown, I wonder? I only saw the clash live 3 times.
I was hooked on Clash from the age of 13, finally saw Joe Stummer live at a festival when I was about 45. It blew my mind to be seeing one of my all -time guitar heroes in the flesh
i saw this gig at hammersmith palais ... twice .. 2 nights so good i had to see it twice.. first saw the clash in 77 in harlesden... joe changed my life..
A really valuable document of a classic rock'n'roll band at the top of their game !
Absolutely incredible !!!!
Mick Jones unsung hero of the clash
Nah that was Topper
daviddeida without topper it doesn’t sound right
Right. Didn't he write most of the music?
tywag Mick wrote and arranged most of the music. Topper did write the music for Rock the Casbah and a few other things tho
Topper's not an Unsung hero, just a hero. Mick is tho. I love the songs he mains. Stay Free is one of my absolute favorite songs
mannnn guns of brixton sounds so ahead of its time
Topper Headon is my favorite member...he can frikking play drums, bass, and piano! He may be underrated but that dude's the most talented one in the band.
Topper was the man and everyone knew it - the only drummer, Joe said, who had the stamina and the chops.
Glad you're trying to fit in and leave a comment but it's quite obvious you have no earthly idea what you are talking about.......... There was this guy , went by the name of Strummer, perhaps you should do some research.
@@Burleism They were all geniuses in their own way, but yes, the great Strummer led this band. I remember how quiet Topper was most of the time. They kinda kept him on the down-low back in those days. What I don't understand is, how could he do heroin, but still play on this high level night after night?
@@Burleism listen to "Stay Free: The Story of The Clash" on Spotify and you'll gain more input on how Topper crafted the band's sound and hear it from that "guy", himself.
@@annetta7793 'cos Topper is genius 😃
The band of my life, simply as that. Forever Thank you Mick, Joe, Paul, and Topper
only band that matters
.
Surely you jest.
@@ThekiBoran "And don't call me Shirley." Dr Rummack (Leslie Nielsen) from the flick Airplane! Or did you not get that one either?
@Meish El Ouelbek Mebbe. Influential yeah. No Wire no Nirvana, possibly. But still no Clash we don't even get as far as Nirvana. And maybe Metallica is the only other band of the 90s as influential as Nirvana.
@@loudenkliehr3633 this is the only band that matters. you'll see.
Just seeing this vídeo for the first! So far, the best I've seen! Loved the clash since I can remember! My mom and dad had Sandinista on their records collection and my mind blown away when I heard it. I felt in love right away! I born just 2 days after the release of their first album, so I was a baby at this time. Regardless of that many years later I bought all the albuns, posters and t-shirt that I could! Even more years latter I went seeing Joe and the Mescaleros here in Portugal. Bust show of my love. And I still cry when I remember that! Joe will live Forever in my heart!
I saw them in Boston the next night. I was 15 and at the pinnacle of my fandom. This takes me back. They were spectacular, Joe was volcanic.
This is a 5 star Clash concert
SongsSmiths. 🎸🔥
And I'd say you were right! One of the best.
@Dr. Bombay yes, there were
SongsSmiths like they Live at Bonds -1981- ❤️Sandanista
The version of Guns of Brixton sounds great! ❤. Thanks for sharing this valuable material 🤟😎
The Clash still Rule! Mikey Dread added a whole dimension to their music with his dub. Loving it all 40 years later. I saw their Combat Rock Tour in Redrocks, Colorado, and met them backstage. I was about 32 yrs old.
Paul Siminon wrote the song, "The Guns Of Brixton"!
That's one of my FAVORITE songs by The Clash!!!
Wow!! WTF I DIDN'T KNOW THAT
The clash were a great band. They had everything. The whole world was in the palm of their hands for a moment in time. Clash city rockers
In 1982 drove 600 miles from Knoxville to Kent State to see the only band that matters for the third time. It was winter and it was cold as hell. Me and my cousin Dan decided to go visit the memorial ( 4 dead in Ohio). It was winter, cold, snowing lightly....while we were standing there taking it in, Joe and Paul walked up. It was very surreal....we simply said hello to one another and stood in silence. As we walked away Joe and Paul were still standing there. Later that night while performing Somebody Got Murdered Mick had tears running down his face...I know that these events were not connected...I assume so anyway...but they shall always will be connected in my heart and soul. Rest in gentle peace Joe.
Why the third time? Yours seems to be an interesting story - tell more, please!
wonderful story and meeting
LONDON CALLING was the only album I bought on LP, cassette, and CD. It never got old. Now I stream the damn thing. Awesome show.
Of all the shows that were ever played at this venue, this is the one I wish I was born earlier to have seen. Long live The Clash!
I was there. The Passaic Fire Department had to check under all the seats before the concert started because of a bomb scare. Great night.
I was there, too. So cool that this video exists. Only Clash concert I ever got to. Thanks to Google Music I can now stream Clash City Rockers while I wear my Nike shorts and Adidas shirt with my New Balance sneakers while on the treadmill at my silly posh gym. Joe, Mick, Paul and Topper did not have that in mind probably.
Yeah, but because we're all re-buying their music on iTunes and google music, they get to live in Notting Hill! Good for them. RIP Joe.
PASSAIC NEW JERSEY!!!!!!!!! where was this place in Passaic county? Clifton? Paterson? Lodi?
Nothing like Joeys in Clifton nj or Chicagos in Lodi nj
I'm born n bred in new Jersey and trust me, Bruce Springsteen, bon Jovi and frank sinatra were never this cool
Best Punk Band...In my opinion. Joe is just great.
Jason Lassiter. I agree ! Miles ahead of all the others.
Not so Punk in 1980 really......this was the reason of worlwide success. Punk was a big cultural phenomena but a niche in music
Fuck punk. They were possibly the best band that will ever walk the planet. Game over.
Punkabilly.
that's the thing. it is not only joe who is great. they all were. i could never say mick jones was less essential to the clash than joe strummer. or paul simonon for that matter. and topper - as all good drummers - provided the solid foundation without which the whole thing would have never worked. slick bastards, all of them.
when i think of the clash, i think of humanity, honesty and sheer musical courage, they saved my life and i can never thank them enough for that, giving people down on the street the hope and the belief that their lives matter. love and blessings to all the clash city rockers out there - get on with it. mod paul
I have been lost in the supermarket since. I attended the last "Clash" show in Toronto. It was a valiant attempt on Strummer's behalf but weren't no Clash show.
The opening act was Billy Idol on his first solo tour. At the time I thought it was as the kids say today, "epic". In hindsight, it was really kinda sad.
A friend gave me a copy of this CD many years ago.I think he said his friend worked the board for this exact show.I must have played it 100 times.Favorite Band of all time for so many reason.Strummer/Jones are my Lennon/McCartney Jagger/Richards
cuddos
The Clash is greatest punk rock band in all times in the 1970s and 1980s.
the Clash were at this point truly at their zenith. London Calling had just been released, and if you were savvy to what that meant at the time you couldn't help but to be slightly blown away. Later Sandinista would leave a bunch of us shaking our heads, but that's another story. At this stage in their existence they were the most important band in the world.
Absolutely true. They reached their peak at this moment. I saw them on stage, just before and just after the release of "London Calling". In terms of charisma, intensity, I barely see any other band who could compete. The Who, maybe...
I guess you didn't know what was going on in the world at the time. The biggest super power in the world was raining death on a small Latin American country. And the Clash dedicated their album to that country. Sacrificed their art/fame/work. I guess that deserves shaking heads. Hmm. Know your facts!
Wow, some people just can't resist going on the attack. Truth is, at the time when the album came out I knew who the Sandinistas were. My comments had to do with the MUSIC of the album, nothing to do with why they were named. Go back and read my post if you don't agree. Hmm, know your facts!
and by the way, Sandinista is not a country, but the group, under the leadership of Daniel Ortega, eventually seized power of the country, Nicaragua. There, do I pass your test now?
Vero De Leon Need to add one more thing here, as your senseless attack got under my skin. Congrats on that. After thinking about what you wrote, then I started thinking about this album. When it was released I bought it. Don't know if I'd heard a single song from it. Didn't need to, whatever they released my friends and I quickly purchased. Now, since you are such an expert, I assume you've heard all the Clash albums up to this point (1981). In that context, six sides of Sandinista, at that point, is the most diverse album I've heard put out by anyone. Most of us had never heard dub, for instance. Or we'd never heard piano featured so prominently on a Clash album, or here's something that oddly sounds a bit like disco, or here's something which has......hmmmm, space invader sounds, or here's something Motown influenced, or here's kids singing Career Opportunities. It was a cornucopia of sounds and genres. In other words this was a radical departure from what we'd known as the Clash. The album was not immediate, seemed uneven for our tastes (at the time). THAT is why we were left scratching our heads. It wasn't hard to pick up the political references on the record (Ivan Meets GI Joe, for instance), but the whole album wasn't about struggles in Central America, now was it?
The reason I bothered writing this is in hopes you reconsider jumping someone before you really understand what they wrote.
This brings tears to my eyes. One of the best of all time.
I was lucky to see them 7 times over 5 yrs, best gig was the 16 tons tour at the Caird Hall (1980) in Dundee, Scotland, that whole place was jumping that night, had row B tickets and got to the stage rapid, next day I was covered in bruises, small price to pay to see this lot, one of the best nights of my life
I was also their that night, students union afterwards and seen the Adverts... TV Smith
Rudieboy1977 Skaville , brilliant, liked the adverts as well, underrated I felt
Most influential band ever. I was lucky enough to see them in 1982 and 1984...would have loved to see them in 1979.
They were great in 77 and 79. Hard to say which was better. They were just different but both were their greatest years in my opinion.
wonderful! thanks for making this available to the fans
After so many years I realise that these songs I love so much are just... pure Rock and Roll
They Were The Best Band In The World at this time.
Killer setlist. . What I wouldn't give to go back in time and see this show.
Ramones live Rainbow 1977, Pistols live Winterland 1978, Clash live Capitol Theater 1980, amazing
I just found this today. It will likely be the highlight of my quarantine. Raw feel of the video fits the band and the energy
Thank you so much for this post. I saw them right around this time at the Armadillo World Headquarters, Austin Texas. Rest In Peace, Joe Strummer.
A great live band at their best. All kinds of styles. Pure energy. Tight as a gnats chuff!
Here is the reason that, at this point in time, they were the best band in rock n roll. Period.
Yes! Awesome. Thanks, for posting this classic.
This video is awesome. I saw the Santa Monica show on this tour, with the Dead Kennedys opening. Seeing Jello get his clothes torn off and shoved back on stage was only the beginning of the highlights of the evening. I can't overstate the molten fury of their attack once The Clash hit the stage. I was a jughead 14-year old, and it was only my second live rock show, so I thought all gigs were like this. R.I.P. Joe.
Thanks for uploading this! Their versatility and growth from album to album is what blows my mind. They cared. They tried. They rocked. RIP Joe...you did your best. Thanks to Topper, Mick and the low key guy.
Thank you!
I think they are still great .
Superb I've loved this band since I was 16yrs old .
I've met Joe and sung on stage with him in Manchester England seen mescaleros everytime they played Liverpool and Manchester.
Spoke to Joe on a staircase after Manchester gig .
Cried for fucking months when he died .
RIP JOE , THROUGH MUSIC YOU WILL LIVE FOREVER
The Clash is the best punk band of all time
Fuckin great band.
no ramones?
The Clash city rockers forever!!
Isaac Torrico They were real rockers. Not fake ones. Like the other two. No gimmicks. Just in your face Rock and Roll.
Incredible band and show. Saw them in Brixton, and the Hollywood Palladium, and the shows are still drilled into my brain
Magic! The fact that this is on t'internet is amazing, I saw them in the early 80's in the UK and had a cherished cassette tape of this concert.this is the Clash at their finest
I'm ashamed it took the 40th anniversary of London Calling to remind me just how amazing The Clash not only were, but still are. I've always known they were special, it took me this long to realize just how much. No band has matched their raw abilities & unpretentiousness. I love this video, I love that it's grainy & out of focus half the time, wish Topper would've gotten more of a look in, but his silhouette is just as intriguing. I also had no idea Mick Gallagher of the Blockheads was so involved with them - or maybe I did back when I'd spend hours reading album copy, but just forgot! I'm jealous of those of you who said you were there!
Thanks for the memories JOE , R.I.P - pure quality
Thanks for sharing 💪🏼🏴
Many tks for the upload!
Three different guys singing in one concert, extremely talented band.
Great show! Thank you!!!
50's camera, but that's ok! Lol
Thanks a lot for post !!
Best concert I've ever been to ... thanks, uploader!
the drugs really kicked in at during jimmy jazz, and i'm referring to myself and not joe
he he he
Hahaha and somehow that seems about the right place for them to kick in as well :) Good timing.
Jimmy Jazz was especially fine on this one! They kicked into a higher gear right there. So much good playing! I love it. So much energy. They just keep coming.
Thank you for your honesty
THANKS!
I was at this in Passaic NJ. Great show
GREAT SETLIST.
The best band ever!
Listen to those reggae style accents Topper is putting on the B part of "London Calling" at 15:15. So cool. And M.G. & Mikey Dread. This is my favorite period of the band's. Thanks for posting!!!
Is M.G. Mikey Gallagher? Then who's Mikey Dread?
M.G. is indeed Mickey Gallagher. Mikey Dread is a Jamaican producer/musician (and "toaster", sort of reggae rapper) who opened up for The Clash on this tour, joined them for the encore, and co-wrote "Bankrobber" and a few tunes on Sandinista!.
Interesting, I didn't know Mikey Dread co-wrote Bankrobber and some other Sandinista songs. I do remember him on the Bankrobber music video though. Mickey Gallagher seemed to have toured quite a bit with the Clash himself.
Yeah, MG was almost a fifth member of the band for a year or two, but he basically disappeared after "Sandinista!". Then Topper disappeared. Then Mick. Sad!
Burnley Vest Huh, so he was there for a while. They could pull it off without Mickey Gallagher, but when Topper left the band's days were numbered in my opinion. When Mick left that was pretty much it. Only two original members after 1982 I think! How sad.
AWESOME songs!!
Thanks to The Clash for that!!
Thaks for this
As good as they were in the studio (and they hella were), Joe, Mick and co. were a killer unit live!
I was 8 going on 9 when this tour took place; so I was too young to go to their gig when it was near me (woulda been whichever DC or Baltimore venue that woulda booked them) -- wish I'd been at least 5yrs. older.
Spanish Bombs kicked ass. I'm blown away how much better it sounds live
I was at this show. On of my favorite shows of all time.
joe and mick singing complete control together is a cure for my depression right now lol
For me. one of the best punk group of all history. Many thanks for this video, really
This is a dream come true flash back seeing this...i saw this tour in detroit, motor city roller rink/mid january 1980 if i remember correctly...i do remember it was electric magic, they were on fire and ripped it up. Ty so much for posting this! :)
What i would give to be alive during their prime my favorite band of all time
it was good time, saw them at Hollywood Palladium and in open air concert with the Who at Coliseum in early 80s
Wow, 1980. I was a senior in HS. Had not even heard of The Clash yet but did soon enough and they were one of my favorites for many years. They sound great and full of life at this concert.
The Clash were one of the most exciting band's live.
Fucing killig best ..Thanks for uploaiding...
The Clash don't get enough recognition as a jam band. They often play songs with a completely different feel, faster tempo, improv solos and Joe screaming new lyrics off the top of his head. Wrong em Boyo is the perfect example on this set. It sounds NOTHING like the album version and I love it
Thanks for posting! WHat a great show.
Vaya conciertazo. Gracias por compartirlo.
I was lucky enough to see The Clash live twice - they were without doubt the best live band ever - their shows were just electric !!
Two bands I most regret not seeing in my younger days - The Clash, and The Ramones.
I saw the Ramones, that was the first band I ever saw, I was born a couple of years too late for The Clash unfortunately....
I saw both. I regret not seeing the Cars and Aerosmith in the 70s.
And Stranglers.
Love it, Love Clash
Mick on Train in vain, charming voice!
Thank you for this. Much love from springfield massachusetts
