Live Ledge #125: The Clash

Last Tuesday's release of the Clash's Sound System box set has me listening to almost nothing but "the only band that matters", so it's only natural that tonight's show is devoted to them. Instead of just playing two hours of Clash tunes, though, this episode features a number of different segments. Sure, there's some rarities from the box set, but there is so much more. There's a segment devoted to the original versions of songs that are now known primarily because of The Clash's versions. There is also a mini-set devoted to rockabilly versions, and quite a few acoustic or semi-acoustic reworkings. Of course, there are also plenty of almost note-for-note remakes by the likes of Rancid, Murphy's Law, and Face to Face.
