now we all know that a certain tier of the music industry is run by ex clash fans and that Mick Jones is for some unknown reason the greatest producer that lived or will do, but what do us mere foot soldiers think of a band who were, let's face it, an ok rock band with a handful of ideas from a bygone age.

For the record I like Hitsville UK and Tommy Gun and most of Sandinista, But I could live a few more years longer if they were erased from history.
