Streetcore

If you ever wondered why everyone made such a big deal about the Clash, this will answer that question. The classic Strummer sound is all over this. He writes world music influenced rock with attitude. This is the sort of album you listen to while on a road trip through the southwest. Some of the most stunning tracks are just Joe and the guitar, like The Long Shadow and Redemption Song. And of course then he turns around with a kick ass rocker like Arms Aloft or Coma Girl.

Hot Spots: Arms Aloft, The Long Shadow, All in a Day
