Here is the first of three podcast segments about The Clash – “the only band that matters’ – to celebrate the release of the new DVD, The Clash Live: Revolution Rock. We start with the emergence of The Clash in London and how many of their songs addressed political and social issues of their time. We also hear from Joe Strummer as he explains how he was discovered while singing for his previous band, the 101ers.
