I’ve been waiting for a North America release of The Future is Unwritten – Joe Strummer, but it looks like I’m going to have to wait until the September release of the DVD. The Clash was one of my earliest musical influences. I thought that I’d put together a list of my must have Clash tunes. Taking inspriation from Why the Clash are still rock titans and A Tape Tribute to the Clash (I loved the ordering and mixed tape feel of Heather McCormack’s list).
