    Paul couldn't even play bass until he joined the band but ended up dropping some of the best lines in music history. London Calling, The Call Up and Train in Vain in particular are nothing without the bass. He's so genuine, very few musicians as humble as him.

      @@frapple1 They're the right lines though. I don't like stuff the likes of Flea plays, too much going on. The start of London's Calling is class with that bass line. Same with Train in Vain throughout the song. Mani is another who wasn't too complicated with his lines but that's what made songs like Fool's Gold so good.

    I managed to see The Clash live in London 11 times between 1977 and 1980 and the ages of 14 and 17 years old. I’m 61 now! 😮

    The Clash were always the ones for me, left a deep impression on my life. Always loved the chorus to 'I'm So Bored With the USA' - to date the most defining 1977 punk chorus of all time. Oh those great tunes.....White Riot, Janie Jones, London's Burning, Police and Thieves, What's My Name, Deny etc, but most will remember the Clash now for London Calling, Bankrobber, Magnificent Seven, Should I stay or should I go Now.
    Looking back I think the best Clash was that era with White Man In Hammersmith Palais, Complete Control, Clash City Rockers, Tommy Gun, English Civil War, Stay Free, Guns of Brixton, Clampdown, Spanish Bombs, Hateful etc.
    Aged 61 I still walk around with a t-shirt with the first album cover on. Paul Simonon was just such a punk dude and they will always be my favourites, just but only just ahead of the very-nearly equally wonderful Stranglers and the Jam. The Pistols, Buzzcocks, the Damned, 999, SLF, Ruts, Vibrators, Generation X, Skids, XTC etc also created damn good music but not in the same quantity.

    It would have been better if Paul was sat in Gary's chair so we could see more of his face. Where he is now the angle doesn't allow us to get a proper look at him speak
