By 1983 I was so absorbed in Strummer and The Clash that I was literally a WWJD, as in 'what would Joe do?'. Every waking moment ever topic of conversation to the annoyance of just about everyone I knew had to do with these kids.
Never before or never since has one band and one man left a more profound impact on me.
This band turned a priveledged kid into an aware human being, pretty grand.
So what a wonderful surprise it was to see Hell W10 available for streaming right here on the mighty PC.
Directed my Mr Joe Strummer, this 50 min trip is a great view through his eyes. Its silly its choppy and not sure if its even edited but at 31 min in you get an breathtaking view to one of the best Clash songs of all Times "Time is Tight" its actually a little story with snippets of Clash tunes sure to please die hard fans. Yes there is a story, think of it as your neighborhood kids got a video camera for Christmas and they make their own action film……same deal.
My day as shot as I'll be stop starting this one all day. Sigh… The Strummer presence is so very missed…
