I was on the Rock Against Racism demo/march having travelled down from Scotland on the bus the previous night but fucking missed The Clash due to the size and slowness of the march. Secondary to the fight against racism and neo-nazis but I was fucking gutted! I STILL AM!

Pogo On A Nazi... Sorry you missed it , it was a great fekin day though.....

[@electricleg207]

I showed this clip to my grandchildren telling them I was there . My granddaughter said 'the one in the middle -he's mad!' .

[@revol148]

@electricleg207 having a grandparent who saw the Clash? - that's oddly impressive !

[@paulrouhan7288]

This was special. It was Rock Against Racism in Victoria Park, East London in 1978. The Neo-Nazis threatened to kill him of he played, as they had tried to claim Sham 69 and punk... He was undecided if he was going to play.... Then he came on. The Nazis were pushed out of Sham 69 and punk

[@johnmacaroni105]

Then he went and bought a nice little gaff in a little village in Somerset... Don't they all.... 🤣

[@Andrew-cl7kg]

Bollocks , they weren't interested in the Clash.

[@markcaygill3452]

Pursey was a talentless prick. Still is. Just listen to his awful tuneless voice compared to Joe. And he couldn’t come in on the song at the right point. Utter twat.

[@neilphillips5995]

Had bottles and chairs from East End pubs and flats chucked at us on the march to Vicky Park. It wasn't fucking glamping in Somerset.

One way to start a White Riot, pull the plug on the Clash. 😂

[@paulrouhan7288]

I think Bernie arranged it though! Tge plug pulling. Not the riot.

[@antscott4922]

My life was already changed by punk and this day helped reafirm everything me thought. It's still real, if we/I want it to be....it's up to you/me/ us x RIP the gooduns that have passed and made the effort for change. Big up! BiG love me friends....move it! x

[@stephenryan7698]

I was there fantastic times.

C'est qui le gars habillé en " Trouver Charlie " ? The clash, pour les avoir vu à Mogador début des années 80 c'était une révolution musicale. Cela nous changeait de la variété bien ronronnante. C'était le choc.

[@M1tjakaramazov]

If the guys could have kept their heads together and made a proper album after London Calling (say combine the best bits of Combat Rock and Sandinista into a single killer album) they could have played crowds like these on their own in the 80es...

[@finnmoore4192]

Cut the crap had a couple of good ones but the thing is their manager bernie Rhodes tried to take too much control over the band and took over the song writing and made it very 80s kind of more pop and without mick Jones and topper Headon it wasn't as good, if u ask me it was bernie Rhodes fault, and to back my point bernie Rhodes decided not to be their manager and after he went they made London calling their best album when bernie wasn't there

[@M1tjakaramazov]

@@finnmoore4192 Perhaps, providing Rhodes had a major change in musical conviction. Their first two albums were made under him as well, albeit with a different producer. You have to bear in mind he did remixes of certain Sandinista songs that were very good and actually presaged the emergent club scene. Cut the crap has a lot of songs with huge potential, and it is indeed the production that screws them up. Even a direct 80es driven disco approach would have worked with better production decisions. But with Sandinista, if you look at interviews from the time, of Strummer especially, it was clear they were trying to replace quality with diversity, most probably out of creative exhaustion and apprehension. It happens to the best of bands when their first wave runs out.

[@finnmoore4192]

@@M1tjakaramazov yeah I think it was a step too far once bernie took over the song writing, the lyrics in the songs before that where so meaningful

[@M1tjakaramazov]

@@finnmoore4192 Well Strummer himself called some of the first album lyrics stone age 😅 ...but around the time of London Calling they did develop a genuine sensibility to convey deeper emotional and social sensations. I personally think Strummer was a very fragile soul creatively, and towards the end he lost the ability to control it and channel it properly into music. Instead of composing brilliant aggressive tunes he reverted to preaching in interviews and opting for ill-considered creative decisions. He was a poetic example of what happens to people whose hearts are too good.

[@lordclancharlie1325]

Yeah so much waste in those albums, brilliant good writen songs but the arrangements and production what a crap.After London Calling they messed up everything, it's like they're making poor covers of good songs
