Yup, just got off the time-machine after listening to this one...nice one, Pete!

Hey Pete... I too haven't heard this one before.... but I'm a fan of the Clash or at least their more popular stuff that was play'd here in the US. This is brilliant... love the vox and dirty guitars.

More please... Tod

Oh yes. My favourite Clash song. You've more than done it justice. Captures the Strummer vocal and the driving energy of the original perfectly. What a cool song to cover - inspired, and brilliantly done! Love it.

Oh bugger ... I had plans to do this sometime, but you've beaten me to it

Great song & I can hear a lot of work has gone into it.
You've stayed pretty close to the original too, especially the percussive bits.
Didn't realise the original hadn't made it across the pond either. Looks like we had a classic all to ourselves.

Maybe I'll have to think about covering Armagideon Time

yeah! micro-bump again! I was just listening to the 70sfest jukebox, and suddenly there I was jumping in the chair with a stupid smile on my face! "if adolf hitler flew in today they'll send a limousine anyway".
