As he said you could go on and on. As they said back in the 70's
'The only band that matters'

 

[Julio]

They say never meet you heroes...I met both of mine, Joe Strummer and Peter Ward, can't say I was disappointed, both true legends. Best Clash track? Something for every mood, so tough to choose one. Cost of Living EP is epic with Capitol Radio, Gates of the west and Groovy Times. Opening of Janie Jones is immense. First 20 seconds of Police and Thieves does it every time. Washington Bullets as true as ever. Vacuum cleaner sucks up budgie. But if I had to pick one, probably White Man has it all, B side the Prisoner wasn't bad either.

 

[Vatican Citys No.2 Keeper]

Was going to start this with a story of why The Clash Are my favourite band, but will save that for another thread. Favourite songs you say: Career Opportunities, Brand New Cadillac, Stay Free, Death or Glory, Straight to Hell, & I FOUGHT THE LAW...i'm now going to put them on & have a jump around - goodnight!

 

[Ringmer Seagull]

Lots of great stuff on this thread but amazed that one of my all time faves hasnt had a mention .......so heres a shout for Clash City Rockers

 

[Godstar]

Oops - forgot to mention, but at gigs we used to do Should I Stay or Should I Go, but our version was Does She Spit or Does She Swallow? - aaah, halcyon days..

 

[Saint Lennard]

Stay free
Somebody got murdered
Washington bullets
Charlie don't surf
Gates of the west
Hate and war
Hitsville UK
Groovy times
Safe European Homes.........

And list goes on........

 

[Lethargic]

The influence of the Clash on the music world is vastly underestimated and musically more gifted than many give them credit for, I love the Clash. Too many great songs to list.

If adlf hitler flew in today
They'd send a limousine anyway!

 

[happypig]

Favourite clash song changes with the mood. Impossible to pick one but if I'm ever in doubt what to play then a clash album is what goes on.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Complete Control. Obviously.

 

[T soprano]

I used to drive around as a courier listening to The Clash with my little girl who was about 6 at the time, and she loved Bankrobber one day she went to school and in assembly the teacher asked what their Dad did or a job, apparently she stood up and very proudly said my Daddy is a Bankrobber, when I went to a school fete about two weeks later I have never seen so many parents give me a wide berth. Love her.

Love Rudi can't fail
