Grade 9, Track 16
“Rock The Casbah,” The Clash
There is a sound that a band makes when its members can no longer stand the sight of each other. If the listener hasn't been a fan from the beginning, she could be forgiven for thinking it's possibly their best sound to date. It is tight and bright and catchy as hell, but it also lacks a certain looseness, a sense of play behind the work that was so evident at the very beginning.
This is that sound.

Hey WP,
I know you won't be able to check this out but when I hit the "This" link a message popped up stating that the "popup was not available in your country".
Just an FYI-er from south of the 49th parallel.

Seriously? I wonder what that's all about? Out here they've very carefully labeled that this video and song and band are the exclusive property of ****, and once you get past the usual advert you get the old MTV video from back when -- which I'm sure you can see for yourself at the American You Tube site. Very strange.
...it's gotta be a Housebound Protection or Homelike Security or Homeland Security or whatever "H" word is being used these days to protect us from ourselves Govt thing.
