Was fucking brilliant in the original and the Clash's rendition.

Listened to the original on the school bus in grade school. We'd get so wound up, the bus driver would yell at us.

The Mister and I saw The Clash...Feb. 1979 at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium.
Just amazing.
I can still close my eyes and relive that show. It seared itself into my brain.
