    I was fortunate enough to see The Clash live, on more than one occasion in the 70's, & early 80's. They were so much more than Punks, which is what a lot of people assumed they were.
    One of the most underrated bands that the UK has ever produced in my opinion, & Bankrobber is one of their smoothest tracks.
    R.I.P. Joe.

      I've seen them more than once, too. The first one was in Milan, summer 1980, Sandinista tour, the last one at Fair Deal, Brixton, July 1982. An also after Mick Jones was sacked I saw them in Milan, but they weren't the Clash anymore IMO

      Yeah, it's funny they were inspired by several different music styles and tried to culminate them all into one.
      And they took it on to big audio dynamite where they really would put all sorts of music into one track with just combinations merge together

Chops to seriously play, style for miles , & really were the most important band in the world, for a good run. I miss strummer. He was a good man, and great musician.

    Always loved the Clash Still do. I grew up on the Stones ( I’m 59) I read in an interview Joe said when he heard ‘Not Fade Away’ ( Stones version) he knew he wanted to be in a band. Also as a fan of both the Stones turned me on to Blues and the Clash onto Reggae. Stones were influenced by American blues and the Clash by Brixton Reggae what could be better.

    Love the Clash. Love my late father. He was a real bankrobber during WW II. They took 46 million euro's from the Germans. Two weeks later they took it all back. Seven of the bankrobbers got killed of starvation in several camps. My dad survived. This song is for him. And those who got lost.

      Bullshit, if you're going to lie at least make it believable. There was no such thing as a Euro in ww2. The Euro didn't come out until 1st January 1999 and if your father was in the war you must be about 70 so you would be old enough to remember before Euro's ,the fact you didn't shows that you must be young.
      When telling lies do the research and it may be more believable

    I grew up in two households, my father was British, step-father American. Both big music fans. My father was a songwriter/guitarist. I grew up hearing all sorts of music. I love the Clash. I see/hear a lot of Johnny Cash influence lyrically and in theme). The Clash definitely get underrated as far as their own influence and stamp on music that followed.
