only just noticed this thread. love the clash the best punk band ever in my opinion. they had something other bands of the movement didnt have- diversity and talent.

the best clash song i've heard ( and in fact the only one i liked )would still have to be should i stay or should i go, based on that song for 10 years i though that the lead singer was the guy who sings it......

There`s this thing in Uncut magazine this month called the Top 100 , where basically 100 musicians & actors choose a book , film or album that means a lot to them.

The Clash`s debut album was included,

Nominated by BO f**kin DIDDLEY.

Talk about surreal

"They said that we were trash,
Well the name is Crass, not Clash.
They can stuff their punk credentials
Cause it's them that take the cash.
They won't change nothing with their fashionable talk,
All their RAR badges and their protest walk,
Thousands of white men standing in a park,
Objecting to racism's like a candle in the dark.
Black man's got his problems and his way to deal with it,
So don't fool yourself you're helping with your white liberal ****.
If you care to take a closer look at the way things really stand,
You'd see we're all just ******s to the rulers of this land."

Would anyone here classify the clash as a punk band, cause nearly everyone I know dont

i think they combined pop, punk and reggae elements to create a fusion, but i know very little to nothing about punk so im probably not the best person to tell you....
