Everyone should own a copy of London Calling.

I´ve got 3, my wifes orig. vinyl, my orig. vinyl and the remastered version on cd. And i´ve got the original maxi single
London Calling/Armagideon Time. I still can remember, to try to hear the differences between Armagideon Time/Kick It Over and Justice Tonight.

Years ago I blagged backstage camping at Glastonbury, more secure, less cramped, better bogs...

Turned out I was camped slap bang next to Joe Strummer... Now, as a Punk, I fucking loved the first album, The Clash, but everything else they later did was rubbish compared to that, I am not fazed by celebrity, so largely ignored him and his campfire of brown nosers. [Ian Brown was there and made a spectacular cnut of himself there btw] They were smoking brickweed that had been liquidised, to get rid of the visible seeds, they were broken into little bits and had ruined the lot. Not overly impressed, I stunk them out with some Jack Herer

So, late at night, returning to my tent in the dark, I realised someone just arrived and, despite this being backstage, had parked their tent half on top of mine... Naturally outraged, and, it must be said, off my fucking face, I decided the only possible course of action was to bomb the fuck out of this bastard, so got a massive Spanish banger, waaay bigger than anything legal in the UK, more like a stick of dynamite... lit it and lobbed it at the offender's recently adjusted tent. Being utterly fucked, it went a bit wrong and ended up blowing up Strummer's tent instead...


Sorry Joe, we lost the poor sod soon after, but there is a permanent shrine to him just at the entrance to the Lost Vagueness fields.

I'm too slightly too young for The Clash when they were doing it but spent many a Sunday afternoon getting loaded to them. Big Audio Dynamite as well.
