Topper is a human fucking metronome. All four of them were equally essential, but I never get sick of watching that guy kill it in the back. Fucking legend.

A very special band. Topper is one of the very best drummers, ever. Incredibly technique, touch, feel and imagination. When I listen to The Clash I often find myself listening especially to Topper's stick'n'kickwork...and I'm a guitarist/vocalist!

There's no comments on THIS? God, I remember this like it was yesterday. Fridays was almost uncanny in its ability to book emerging legends at their absolute prime and then draw fantastic performances out of them, and this is no exception. I mean, how could you be a 12 year old watching this and not be absolutely blown away? Thank god this is available for a new generation to see. A time machine, this-just magic.

Simonon, the bloke started in the band needing stickers on his bass to have the right notes, a year later: Guns of Brixton. Perhaps one of the best bass lines ever! And top of that reggae offbeat

@NannyWhip 4 года назад

A year later Simonon still couldn't play bass and sing at the same time on this one which is why he got Joe to play the riff.

@duffymoony 4 года назад

album wise it's a good track, but live it was always shyte. Siminon could not reproduce it or elevate it the way Strummer could with his choons and vocals. I saw GOB live in Leics in 1980, no better than this.
