Warmed up to Joe considerably hearing his post clash stuff. Wish he was still around.

At least Joe didn't build this city on rock and roll. |

Thank you for this upload, laurelia! I loves me some Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros on a dismal Sunday morning - somehow, they make it brighter...  |

Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros - London Calling, Live (1999)
Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros playing London Calling, live in Cologne, Germany (1999). Track 3 of 11. Note: This video is already on youtube, but this is taken from a digital broadcast, and the source audio is considerably improved.
Superb performance, with very high quality sound. Enjoy. Aristotlekh on Jul 23, 2006

I get tears in my eyes every time I hear a Strummer-Mescaleros song, but I always end up smiling.

A friend and her husband loved Joe Strummer enough to name their baby boy after him: "Strummer Joe." Here's hoping Joe's voice will live on in the little guy.

Like the man said, " . . . the good die young"
Although with this voice, Joe didn't sound like the picture of health. Always enjoyed this tune.

My upload - glad it was added. I'm just discovering the Mescaleros and finding lots of great stuff. I thought this one had a particularly nice groove.
I know what you mean. Was a huge Clash fan back in the day but its taken me a few years (and sadly after his death) for me to get into Strummers solo and Mescaleros stuff. |
