The Clash - Audio Ammunition Documentary - Part 4 - Sandinista

[@deathfromabove77]

"Sandinista" is a magnificent thing...glad you didn't change it , Joe

[@hisbigal]

It's hard to believe that Joe has been gone for over 11 years. He is still missed deeply.

[@unitedmad9580]

Over 20 years now

[@walmyvlad2966]

Was walking my dog when Police on my back popped in my head. Clash did that right?, I said to myself. Suddenly, that whole Clash vibe just ran straight thru me. Looked it up. Sure enough. Sandinista. My old guitar players favorite album. The Clash was all their own. God bless them for staying true, mostly 😊 If Joe were still around, would they still be putting songs out?? "I've been running...."

[@bradhart5222]

I think the clash saved my life…. When I was in jr.high I was very sad. They were the soundtrack to my life. They were genius… I put so much into punk, it was also not my older brother🎉and sisters… music. I love Joe strummer. All of them.

[@jonanjello]

The spliff bunker is an awesome concept

[@Revit7]

I have 1980 a sandinista vinyl hanging on my wall, my favorite clash album.

[@jimschultz5670]

Joe Strummer: Spliff Bunker Inventor...love it!

[@performedinsensibleshoes977]

These Clash documentaries are fantastic! Love it!

[@REALmamawouldbeproud]

hahaha the "spliff bunker"- fantastic

[@ocielgarcia105]

Ah yes, as mentioned in the Clash song “If Music Could Talk”

[@youthofyesterdayrecords]

Aw Joe. I feel your passion for the music, man. Wherever you may be 🔥🔥🔥.

[@reneeguillory7353]

Was my fave Clash album in the 80s and it's my fave now. BRIL.

[@beefheart1410]

Timeless, marvellous album. I'd have to slump for London Calling if I had a gun to my head (and for emotional, nostalgia reasons) but it's a close run thing. Rope would be snapping at the heels as well but, y'know, one of the greatest bands ever. Like any band, you can't really explain to others what they really meant unless you are from a certain time and place yourself. I'm not saying that these bands and their music doesn't travel of course; I'm sure people will always be able to enjoy bands like the Clash whenever and wherever but, if you are British and were born between 1955 and 1970 I don't have to explain to you what this band meant then and evoke now. Will love 'em forever!

[@Pete_S]

I like Combat Rock best

[@wasdanah]

Warts and all. Still growing to become my best album ever. MAG-NIFICENT!

[@Souker69]

I am 100% with Joe on this one. I wouldn't change one thing in Sandinista! best clash album for me, even after all these years.

[@palacerevolution2000]

God they are just so fukkin badass. They are so united! In bands often you have one blaring about this, and one whining about that. But these 4 cats are all ...they're the 4 horsemen.

[@PeterBorell]

Spliff bunker. Love it.

[@ivan_Dingle58]

Charlie Don't Surf has got to be my favourite from Sandinista. What's everyone else's?

[@thomasandersen6719]

Version City....Lew Lewis plays on it...early member of Eddie and the Hot Rods

[@cicranelnaz]

Really hard to pick the favorite...maybe Washington Bullets, Lose This Skin, Hitsvile UK...really hard to choose...the whole album is a masterpiece...really sad that is so overlooked

[@Souker69]

Broadway for me, but this record is full of different jewels for everybody to take a pick

[@csmith1298]

A little late, but my favorite song from Sandinista! would have to be One More Time, which may also be my favorite Clash song. Honorable mentions would be Something About England, Look Here, and quite a few others. Love Sandinista!, warts and all.

[@Marleystrummer]

The spliff bunker lol, Joe was the fucking man!

[@claesmogren]

Hehe... "The spliff bunker was a great idea, because you can't have a load of idiots partying in the control room.."

[@darrylwiggins1156]

God i miss these guys.mick seems so cool. I am so proud i bought then and still own this masterpiece that reflected the minds talent and musical desire of these clearly visionary men.

[@thomasandersen6719]

I love Sandinista......apart from side 3-4-5 and 6

[@darrylwiggins1156]

Tommy, they were true to their craft.experimenting.give them credit at least for not playing the same song over and over.the beatles would have been proud.maybe they were.

[@thezenitsufan1249]

Sandinista is in my opinion the Clash's best album

[@nathanisaksson]

Might be my favorite too.

[@samgolfyob4266]

Thanks guys

[@patrickfitzgerald409]

A truly innovative album! A friend of mine, or his brother perhaps, has my Sandinsta album signed on the back by Joe, Mick, Paul & Terry C. Signed after 1982 gig at Newcastle City Hall. Alas having moved, not seen the album for many a year. If you're reading this Andy Hammond.!?

[@grungil7570]

LOL Did you said goodbye to the album at least?

[@andylowe5491]

Fuckin Love them like my own, in fact they Are part of Me, Always xxxx

[@madzen112]

Spliffbunker... I'll remember that one! 😂

[@tciorciari]

Still my fav Clash album. Great stuff throughout. Like the Beatles' White Album. Don't like some of the tracks? Make your own single album version.

[@rainycity68]

love it ... what a class band ..

[@savinecycles]

Booooooommmmmm !!!!! The best Clash album, just.

[@versioncity1]

Yup, Sandinistia is my favourite album, just as the white album is my favourite beatles album. They contain the best and the worst, and everything in-between. That it is rough around the edges only adds to it's immediacy and charm.

[@strummeresque]

Thanks to human scale, fan-friendly Clash Economics, if allowed to take only ONE album onto a desert island or into the Great Beyond, 'Sandinista!', with its wealth of diverse flavorings, its dreamscape soundtrack of skiffle dub folk rap jazz gospel blues rock n roll, is the only choice. The ONLY choice.

[@electricleg207]

Mick once described Sandanista as a record to take on an oil rig !

[@punkisinthedetails1470]

Hey Joe what are we gonna do now?

[@dianerussell5222]

I like the unionpean sound its soulful 2me

[@gouvyrock]

their best album

[@madzen112]

Wonder if they ever caught any flak from the contras for that title

[@Mari-lc9pl]

Learn how to grow upright, a human being to The Clash::

[@edcampbell6164]

I wanna build myself a spliff bunker

[@tciorciari]

More marimba!

[@elguatini]

subtitulos!!!!

[@punkisinthedetails1470]

What have we got?

[@stuadam7563]

It was Madness who burst in on youz not The Blockheads!

[@performedinsensibleshoes977]

I've heard Suggs talk about this too. To be fair Mick Jones had been in the "spliff bunker" beforehand so his memory may on been slightly impaired! :)

[@marcos.666]

Spleef bunker!

[@danielmcdermott138]

The tracks I don't like on the white album(Birthday, Savoy Truffle) annoy the fuck out of me. But the worst tracks on sandinista don't bother me, I either like or admire them.

[@mantaszmenskis5619]

Is awesome how you've become proper gentleman. :~Þ

[@punkisinthedetails1470]

No Joe no Mojo No Go

[@joeyjojojunior4886]

So it's really a infomercial for the first 5 records to purchase on Google Play. Not super insightful.

[@georgestetson5572]

All the joe strummer stuff is takin from the west way to the world documentary

[@edsmith3461-z7m]

The only problem was that Ian Dury & The Blockheads were dressed as British cops.

[@blackmore4]

Great group and all that but, four parts in to this documentary, does anyone else find Joe Strummer's relentless intensity (every single sentence) a little bit much?

[@JMarinelli]

No.

[@sebasbasmarmota]

SUBSSS!!

[@punkisinthedetails1470]

The Green Room haha

[@ryanjones553]

wait a minute. that bloke looks like wilco! hhahahahaha

[@Steve80458]

Spliff bunker. I idolise the Clash. But the Spliff Bunker is adults behaving like children. The decadent West talks about spliff bunkers while the despots in China etc just focuses on accumulating power and working hsrd.

[@allsystemsgo8678]

Sandinista should of been a single album. Ton of filler on that album.

[@JamesParsonsDunckervon]

methinks they doth protest too much. 'Sandinista' wasn't even good....they should have rested for a bit. :-)
