What's the best thing Joe Strummer ever recorded?
I've always like Garage Land, White Man, and White Riot _________________ I got one art O'level it did nothing for me |

More like 'Daddy was diplomat".
All the same Joe Strummer was a front man. It's a shame that his mouth and brain were sometimes out of sync. _________________ Richard Eddington is innocent.

Stay Free has always been my favourite Clash track, although Mick Jones sung that one..........Joe Strummer, Probably Bank Robber or Police and Thieves. _________________ The past is our knowledge, the present our mistake and the future we always leave too late. |

I would go for Clampdown as my favourite Clash track, although I am not a fan of the album it came from, London Calling. The US version of their first album is the one I would rate as their best. _________________ Richard Eddington is innocent.

I love a lot of the covers he recorded; Brand New Cadillac, I Fought the Law, Redemption Song, and an old Fats Domino song called, Silver & Gold

Rock The Casbah. His voice sounds great on that. I'm fond of Radio Clash and This Is England as well. |
