he had an
absolute slapper of a wife and his children were called swish things like Jazzy. he was very polite though. if i'd have known who he was i'd have understood.
so that's my clash knowledge

Hmmm so is Sir Joe Strummer in fact the father of Jazzy Jeff or that bloke from Soul II Soul? We should be told. Mr Strummer bought me a drink at a Pulp gig once, which was nice of him & it even prevented me telling him my "Being in the Clash" dream, but as I have less shame about looking foolish now, here goes: In my dream I was hanging around looking "punk" outside Portsmouth Guildhall waiting to see my teenage heroes when Joe stuck his head round the door and uttered the immortal words "Hey kid, our finely chiseled cheek-boned bassist has had to go get his haircut, wanna join the band?" Obviously I must have looked the part or maybe it was because I had my bass guitar with me?? Anyway there I was on-stage with the band & it was wonderful until I remembered I only knew how to play two songs & they were by The Police & The Boomtown Rats so the crowd weren't pleased. Joe said it didn`t matter as it was punk rock but I didn`t believe him.
