Yeah I was at at friends in la fresh out of limey land watching out Tom Snyder show this is the best version I have ever seen of mag 7 it is magnificent full of energy shame the ending was cut
I was there during the taping of the program. It was the highlight of my internship at NBC. Got to meet Strummer who was so cool and encouraging of a young guitar player like myself. Been a hero of mine ever since.
wow. so cool you were the intern there. I saw this tour. I think this might have been the tour at least I saw in Asbury Park. I also saw them at Bonds. I was so young then tho. I barely understood what i seeing. I just liked it is all.
This version is a whole different beast than the studio version, the recorded version is slower and groovier/funkier...this version is off the chain on fire!
Yes, they reached me. From their souls through my ear into brain and heart. Noch nie sowas geiles von irgend jemandem in nem LiveVideo gesehen und gehört. Und die machen nix, spielen nur ihren Song. No need for a show. Just Clash.
Personally !, i think this is one of the greatest most energetic live performances ive ever seen. It was absolute 100% dedication and commitment with the clash, and they never really lost that. All 4 of them are great musicians especially Mick.
One of the greatest rock songs of all time, especially lyrically. Just unbelievable lyrics from Joe. "Don't you ever stop long enough to start? Get your car outta that gear." Still inspires me today.
OMG what energy from the best band ever, the only one that mattered. Miss them so much. Fortunate to have seem them twice, wish it had been more. Miss you Joe Strummer.
I was in high school when this aired: mind blown, permanently. The Clash had a profound impact on me in more ways than one; needless to say, my taste in music was forever changed.
"You're only as good as your drummer". One of the last great rock bands when they had Topper Headon on the drum throne. I saw them live with and without him.....there was no comparison and Jonesy knew it. Then Joe fired Jonesy (which was like firing Jimmy Page from Zeppelin for God's sake) it was all over. Such a loss. But we still have this MAGNIFICENCE.
@@princeofcupspoc9073 True! I heard that as well. Sadly Joe passed to soon. I also heard that this reunion of the Clash was so close to happening, they wanted to get back out on the road, and when Joe did pass, they strongly considered a sort-of- tribute show, or tour with Tim Armstrong on vocals. Of course he’s no Strummer, but what a great choice for a tribute to Joe. IMO, Armstrong would have been the only choice!
@@matthewreeves6084 A better choice would have been Ari Up from The Slits or Siouxie Sioux Unexpected and unconventional to have a female singer filling in for a male, but Joe would have loved that. HR from Bad Brains would also have done a great job in the spirit of Strummer.
Photographed them several times, 1979-80, California and England. AH-mazing band!! My photos opened the VERY first Tom Snyder punk show. I danced during their first TV show on Fridays. Can see a tiny snippet of me in blue dress. THE BEST BAND to ever see or photograph! Ah ...
The Clash played at the Capital Theatre Sydney in 1982 . The had 7 consecutive nights of concerts where the concerts were touted as the Magnificent Seven . I recall to this day as I was 17 that they were incredible to say the least. It was amazing how they reached out ( and still do ) to their audience probably to the likes that we may never see this purity ever again . They were Magnificent !
Unreal John, Tommy "Gun" Carroll told me that he and his surfer mates from Newport went every night. We, in Qld, went to the insane concert at Cloudland, Brisbane. Unmatched forever!!
The Clash were real legends, among the greatest Rock Bands of all times. Rude Boy movie got me into Punk Rock decades back ago. This version is mind-blowing, so much energy and emotion came out.... I consider myself lucky only to watch Joe my Rock hero live , a year before he dies in 2002
I bought "Sandinista" as a 3 record vinyl for 18.99 at "Sam The Record Man" on Young St. in Toronto when it was released, (going rate for a reg LP being 7.99 at the time). Here we are 40 years later (Sam's is gone) and it's still in my regular rotation and I could say it would be my ONE choice for that "deserted island" only record I could have, because of the pure and genuine innovative goodness packed into it. The Clash, and Joe Strummer primarily, really had his finger on the pulse and his good ear to the ground at this point in time, and this record spelled out what was coming down the pike (and influenced it to a certain degree) , as well as exposed people to genres of music they might not encounter in their local scene. "London Calling" was nominated as best recording of the decade in the 80's, but for me personally, Sandinista is it. I was fortunate to live through this time, but we didn't have the access to all the great video footage instantly available like we do now, and there in, is the gold in the treasure chest.
Seeing this live on late nite tv I just cant begin to say how refreshing this was from the old -stones, zep ,who,ect this night change me forever ! paul is the coolest looking bass player ever
Saw them Live in Paris in 1980. I was 15 by then. I had what we called a Walkman at that time and I will always remember that LONDON CALLING played both sides in a row will dry empty the batteries. So I had two sets of batteries always with me. And SANDINISTA remains one of the greatest ROCK Symphony of all times. Mind You :-) Tks Joe !
One of the greatest video's I've ever seen! what happened to music these days nobody seems to give a shit about anything anymore. these guys are brilliant!
wicked good. Topper just kilz it, driving this crazy pace w\o breaking a sweat. everything about this performance is top shelf. bands just aren't this good anymore, then again ... maybe they weren't before these guys either ;o).
Man! we waited all week for this show to air. It was so exciting to see them live. Back in the days before MTV and TH-cam. God Bless Tom Snyder! (yellow smokers teeth 'n all).
Every lyric of this song is as right-on now as when the Clash first released it, and the sound and fury go perfectly with the words. I wish more people felt this way. I wish I still felt this way -- enough to actually do something about it. Shit....
This is just beyond belief, the power and intensity is incredible! Love how this is very different to the album version too. Too many bands go the same pop/folk sound now, it gets a bit monotonous and there's a lack of lyrical depth; then again I doubt any band will go anywhere lyrically near political as the clash!
Damn if Mick's delay pedal isn't going full force, filling so much space, and at least 2 years before U2 started doing it at that. The Clash really were poised to take over stadiums. But I dunno, how things ended up were just as good.
i remember seein this show and shocked its here thanks so much the clash enjoyable haunting music that will live in infamy miss you joe rest in peace to everybody else live long and never forget! safe journey mycyvee
August 27th, the year was 1982. University of Pennsylvania, Class of '23 Arena. I was 15 and saw what was not only my first concert, but might as well have been my last. The opening act was another legendary band named Burning Spear. It was a hall of fame worthy night and it took me years before I realized what I witnessed. Thanks Mark Pignitore!
+MUD=_- Agreed, thanks for bringing it to attentions. The whole band performance is complete for me...with pure poetry. Also one of few times I seen Joe not mess his words singing live. Here he was on point and raw. Great skills as always too from Topper. In short...brilliant!
Matthew Breeden It's not actually his line, he's doing a really great job of covering Norman Watt Roy's bass part on the original album/single version.
The incredible thing is that he didn’t even play bass when he joined- they brought him on cause they liked the way he looked. Turned out to be a good call, cause holy hell did he get the hang of it.
yes, Joe Strummer invented rap. I saw them in 1981 in San Francisco. they inspired my first mohawk. I am now 63 (a grandmother) Joe would be 60 now. I miss the Clash. What a fun time it was.
22/12/2002 the day the music died....I cried like a baby when joe died ...I blasted out the clash all day and night sat outside drinking Jack daniels breaking my heart....me and my pals would dog the school go to my mums cos she was at work and we would blast out COMBAT ROCK.....now my music heroes are getting older...BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN....ACDC....or has split up like OASIS..but music and memories live on.....god bless u joe...ur my guitar hero 🎸🎸🎸🎸

imagine flicking through the tv channels in 1981 and just happening upon this moment of unbounded glory and brilliance
You would certainly know you were witnessing something special pal
Yeah I was at at friends in la fresh out of limey land watching out Tom Snyder show this is the best version I have ever seen of mag 7 it is magnificent full of energy shame the ending was cut
Seriously, how would you explain it to your friends? Words don't do this performance justice. Thank God I can rewatch this over and over again
Jesus that was amazing!
Producers: How much echo do you want on the microphones?
Mick: Yes, “GIVE IT ALL YOU GOT!”
YOULOT YOULOT YOULOT YOULOT YOULOT
😄
This will be played at my funeral. Best song ever.
These guys were playing like their lives depended on it. So damn good!
Guy Larrivee top comment
hahahaha,,,
Kudos on your literacy. Their* Rare in 2019 indeed. Morons ABOUND.
It was about energy and power projected to the crowd.. punk rock got the job done!
Amphetamine and passion is a potent mix
What more can you ask for? A funky bassline, haunting, aggresive guitar playing, Joe rapping, and the Human Drum Machine behind you. Not much else!
I was there during the taping of the program. It was the highlight of my internship at NBC. Got to meet Strummer who was so cool and encouraging of a young guitar player like myself. Been a hero of mine ever since.
Outstanding!
That's awesome! So cool to hear that a band you like are actually nice bros! Happy new year man
wow. so cool you were the intern there. I saw this tour. I think this might have been the tour at least I saw in Asbury Park. I also saw them at Bonds. I was so young then tho. I barely understood what i seeing. I just liked it is all.
Media Dreamer ..rock on!
Wow. Respect. Saw them in Austin earlier, later Combat Rock-era in Houston. Miss Joe Strummer's voice.
Can you believe that raw genius like this aired live on broadcast television? What an era!
This is what happens when the audio is NOT pre-recorded. Brilliance
ACTUALLY LIVE, kids don't know today
This is what happens when you give a damn about what you are playing too
Magnificent
Blijft zo mijn ding ❤
Don't you mean MAGNIFICENCE ??????
This version is a whole different beast than the studio version, the recorded version is slower and groovier/funkier...this version is off the chain on fire!
Forgive me for being kurt, this energy is coming out their nads! Pure F'n rock n roll!! 💘💘🤠
Yeah!!!!!

Yes, they reached me. From their souls through my ear into brain and heart.
Noch nie sowas geiles von irgend jemandem in nem LiveVideo gesehen und gehört. Und die machen nix, spielen nur ihren Song. No need for a show. Just Clash.
I love the studio version because the bass lines (Simonon is increadible)
But this live is spetacular!!!
All the band in harmony.
Paul was such a cool cat on bass. And a damn good player for someone who had to learn bass on the spot
Personally !, i think this is one of the greatest most energetic live performances ive ever seen. It was absolute 100% dedication and commitment with the clash, and they never really lost that. All 4 of them are great musicians especially Mick.
Have watched this 100 times and will watch it 100 times more . Absolutely brilliant ! The clash ! The only band that matters .
Ha! Yes, Ignore Alien Orders...
The Clash, *The Only Band That Matters!*
after hearing the studio version 500 times I did NOT expect this, so good!
I´m in debt with the Clash, they taught me to love music.
One of the greatest rock songs of all time, especially lyrically. Just unbelievable lyrics from Joe. "Don't you ever stop long enough to start? Get your car outta that gear." Still inspires me today.
Jaw dropping energy. My kind a punk. Everybody's kind a human being. One incredible man and one astonishing band. Once again they floored me
OMG what energy from the best band ever, the only one that mattered. Miss them so much. Fortunate to have seem them twice, wish it had been more. Miss you Joe Strummer.
The only band that matters...
Και....για πες...?
Yes, sometimes you have to overstate (is this the right word?) to tell the truth.
Indeed!
Brilliant. But have you heard of The Beatles? I think they mattered 🤣
@@daviddeltel8996 At the time The Clash were called "the only band that matters," The Beatles had been retired for a decade. Duhhh.
It's amazing how hard this rocks compared to the 'Sandinista!' version. This is incredible.
One of the greatest live performances of all time. Holy smokes!
Proof that once there were giants on our planet
Yep, gods used to stride the earth
I was in high school when this aired: mind blown, permanently. The Clash had a profound impact on me in more ways than one; needless to say, my taste in music was forever changed.
straight to hell boys
Thank whoever had the sense to film this that they did. FUCKING GLORIOUS.
The magnificent four.
i come back to this every once a while. never seen such a great performance like this
Who can dislike this? The Clash, the one and only BAND!!!!
guitarnicolasgreek I Love this 💣🎈
Topper is a Machine. Without him, they folded. That Look at the beginning .
And they still matter. Unreal how good they were.
This is the best version of this song I have ever heard live. Absolutely powerful, and amazing!
Ladies, and Gentleman, THE CLASH !
best punk band ever...saw them in 1979
absolutely true
paterson44 sorry #€&#@ THE dead Kennedy’s +%@:) where olso VERRY Nice 😎
Out of this world, Joe and the band were on fire here.
only long ago comments, I come back to this at least once a year to see the power that was of these guys, magnificent
This song is always sounded incredible live.
Paul Simonon is the definition of cool. What a band. I wish I had seen them live. Oh, the power.
This is better than the studio version.
not a chance..
Live >>>>>> Studio
Most of there songs sound better live.
danielscissorhands totally agree ...i hate the studio version..
Long regrets true ...but this song its a total 360 ...not even close ..
Tom Snyder certainly had an open mind in regards to music.
And, on the evidence, an open mind about "The Outer Fringe of Sex", which is still to come.
Topper is so good
remember when wendy o'williams and the plasmatics blew up a car??
This song is so good . From start to finish . Dont stop, give it all you got .
The Boy Strummer, was a geezer. Brilliant live performance.
Mega. Mega. Mega. The clash. Best ever,,,, 👍👍👍👍👍👍
They played this funk song like a punk song here. Either way it sounds wonderful. Such an amazing band and fantastic musicians and lyricists.
They don't talk to us like this anymore. There is no dialogue.
There are few musicians that I admire more than Joe Strummer. Such intense passion and devotion and desire on stage I've never seen in any one else.
He was the real deal.
❤❤ what are the ones you admire also?
Iggy?
@@bluelines1 or Nina Hagen :P
One of the best live performances EVER....🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
the clash and the pogues is all the music i will ever need
Absolute sound and fury. The reverb makes it almost...operatic...this is undeniable proof of why the Clash is/was one of the great ones.....
"You're only as good as your drummer". One of the last great rock bands when they had Topper Headon on the drum throne. I saw them live with and without him.....there was no comparison and Jonesy knew it. Then Joe fired Jonesy (which was like firing Jimmy Page from Zeppelin for God's sake) it was all over. Such a loss. But we still have this MAGNIFICENCE.
Yes, we DO have great records and live performances as a treasured legacy. But it's too bad it ended when it did, and in such a sad way.
Joe and Mick were talking reunion right before Joe died.

Dam! Their a great live band
the clash is the greatest band that ever lived...period!!!
In some of my more philosophical moments I've often thought to myself, "Plato the Greek or Rin Tin Tin? Who's more famous to the billion millions?"
Seeing this live on late nite tv
I just cant begin to say how refreshing
this was from the old -stones, zep ,who,ect

The clash songs never get old. One of the best British singers ever.
Clash had two singers Joe was the cool one Mick was a better sweet singer
I know. I was born and brought up in London.
Nice too see The Clash enjoying being the THE CLASH!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of the greatest video's I've ever seen! what happened to music these days nobody seems to give a shit about anything anymore. these guys are brilliant!
When they were hot The Clash were a real force. Timeless, funky and so influential.
wicked good. Topper just kilz it, driving this crazy pace w\o breaking a sweat.

Still watching the 'Boys' before during and after the Euros....top geezers !!
Huge energy...and for a Tom Snyder Show. It's why I will always love this band.
I love this performance so much more than the album version. It's so f'n great.
Holy fukken sheeyit, this just might be the best televised live performance of "Mag-7" of theirs I've ever seen!!!
Incomparable. One of THE GREATEST acts of all time. Not just a punk band.
The great Topper Headon everybody.
Yep, a little powerhouse and so underrated
he makes those 16ths and accents sound so easy and natural
Omfg they were so good.
Excellent! LOVE THE CLASH. RIP JOE STRUMMER...
The Clash are needed more than ever in this world we live in.

Great band, great song. And, let me say, Tom Snyder always hosted one terrific show.
They were my gods growing up. Saw them at the rundown Cape Cod Colosseum, Hyannis, MA. General admission, I was in the front row. Amazing.
More amazing every time I watch it
Damn if Mick's delay pedal isn't going full force, filling so much space, and at least 2 years before U2 started doing it at that. The Clash really were poised to take over stadiums. But I dunno, how things ended up were just as good.

Live Performance From another planet!
August 27th, the year was 1982. University of Pennsylvania, Class of '23 Arena. I was 15 and saw what was not only my first concert, but might as well have been my last. The opening act was another legendary band named Burning Spear. It was a hall of fame worthy night and it took me years before I realized what I witnessed.
Thanks Mark Pignitore!
The Clash and Burning Spear.....WOW. Now that's a night of entertainment!
only one word: perfect !
only one word:CHEESEBOIGER
Once seen never forgotten!!
what a performance
Love Joe's cries of "Maaaagnificent!" at the end... the recorded version could've used 'em!
Damn, Paul showing some skills in this performance. That is some hard stuff to play around 3:53
+MUD=_- Agreed, thanks for bringing it to attentions. The whole band performance is complete for me...with pure poetry. Also one of few times I seen Joe not mess his words singing live. Here he was on point and raw. Great skills as always too from Topper. In short...brilliant!
this is one of his best lines
Matthew Breeden It's not actually his line, he's doing a really great job of covering Norman Watt Roy's bass part on the original album/single version.
The incredible thing is that he didn’t even play bass when he joined- they brought him on cause they liked the way he looked. Turned out to be a good call, cause holy hell did he get the hang of it.
absolute quality
the masters at work
The magnificent seven is one of the best street jam ever ask any old school jam's DJ
Isso que é banda punk...viva o CLASH!
yes, Joe Strummer invented rap. I saw them in 1981 in San Francisco. they inspired my first mohawk. I am now 63 (a grandmother) Joe would be 60 now. I miss the Clash. What a fun time it was.

Uhh...no. Rap was around at least 1979. Sugar Hill Gang. Stop trying to give credit where it's not due.
@@cary8214 why respond to a 7year old comment
Tom Snyder was a great interviewer. Joe Strummer was one of the greatest of his generation. Miss them both.
Watching this always gets me pumped up. Best version of this song, so much intensity.
it's fckn magnificent this
Clash is Awesome!!!!!!!!
THIS. IS. AN AMAZING PERFORMANCE.
