    I'm old enough to remember the Sandanista triple album by the Clash was in response to a Bruce Springsteen double album and Joe Strummer said something like, " Bruce, suck on this.". They were more alike than they realized. I hate that Joe is gone, and happy to see Bruce honoring him the way he deserves. I just don't think enough people know the genius Joe Strummer was

    It's amazing to think that Rolling Stone voted London Calling the album of the Decade for the 80's...even though it was released in 1979.. For an album to last in the popular zeitgeist for a full decade, with the transience of 'popularity' is truly the real testament to the skill and quality of The Clash.

      A lot of people miss that. This isn't a love letter song, its a song full of cyincal rage. It's meant to be played at 11. It's meant to be an angry fuck you to the world.

    Does anyone NOT remember hearing this song for the first time? I was about 12, it was 1981 or '82, I was at my friend's house and I put on side 1 of Rush's Fly By Night for him. Then he went up to his older brother's room and brought down Londing Calling and out it on. Whoa. That bass line grabs you by the throat. It's possibly the greatest rock song ever written. Much as I love Bruce, he doesn't come close to doing this song justice. No one besides the Clash can.

      Give those who loved Joe and the Clash some love too!!! - Don't be such a one-way hard ass. - It's NOT Bruce & the E Street or Morello's song - They KNOW that -- can't they show their love for the man and the band without the "they don't do it justice" comment?

    Audio quality is not great on this video, the bass has kinda disappeared, but Bruce's performance is top class as usual. It's a truly great song by The Clash..

    • @eboethrasher
      @eboethrasher 2 роки тому +9

      It isn't that the bass has disappeared, it is that the bass player isn't playing the bassline right at all. They are playing root notes, in the strumming pattern, not the melodic bassline that is so distinctive and drives the song so well.

    The Boss, Tom Morello, and Reverend Joe Strummer from the Great Beyond.... add Woody Guthrie, and it would be the Mount Rushmore of working class heroes...
    As for Little Stevie Van Zandt.... unfairly to him, I cannot NOT envision him as Silvio, despite the fact that he was famous for decades before the first episode of Sopranos.

      Seriously, the bass line is so important to the song and they totally suffocated it.

    • @eboethrasher
      @eboethrasher 2 роки тому +2

      @@ralelunar The bassist isn't playing it correctly, I can hear what he's playing, it is practically duplicating the guitars, staying in time with their strumming pattern, it isn't standing out like it should. That bassist has no clue how to play it. If you watch him playing it in the beginning, he is totally simply playing the root, in the strumming pattern, underneath the guitar. Not Simonon's distinctive bassline that is essentially the main melodic component to the guitars that are just chopping away. If I were Bruce, I would fire the guy, that shit is embarrassing.

    That fucking bass player should be fired. He butchered one of the most important elements of this song, that distinctive bassline. I don't know if you know this, buddy, but playing root notes in time with the strumming pattern is NOT how you play bass to this song. JFC.
