About 30 years ago, he'd be on a stage playing this in front of hundreds of people going crazy and wild, and here he is in a library playing for less than a 100 just appreciating him doing his thing, and he looks just as happy to just play anyways. Such a true musician at heart, what an awesome guy.

My brother used to subscribe to Creem magazine back in 1980 and I would read about this exaggerated feud between Led Zep fans and Clash fans, I had no idea who the Clash was. Then I heard "Train in Vain" on the radio in a store and I was transfixed, it sounded like a classic pop single from the 60s. When the DJ said it was The Clash I thought "so that's what those goofy looking yahoos in Creem magazine sound like, holy shit!'" Been a fan ever since, got to meet Strummer when he played with the Pogues on tour in NY, one of the high points of my life.

It's long past time that the true credit for the Clash be given to the man who deserves it most. I love Joe, but Mick Jones IS the Clash....he founded it, picked the members of it, wrote most the music and even produced the albums and singles. He's a gentle, humble soul who has always given way to the overwhelming personality of Strummer...but the truth is the truth, and The Clash was Jonesy's creation.
