3. Nice One!
Two Strummer fans. Excellent. Go forth and multiply.

Just out of interest, how did you first hear of Strummer?

4. all of them
& I assume you mean his work after the Clash.

I'm kind of partial to "Cool n Out" and "On the Road to Rock n Roll".

His version of Redemption Song on Streetcore is goose-bumpy too.

6. It's not ringing a bell at this moment - jog my memory
Where's it from?

Answer to where did you first hear of Strummer? Would have been round about the time London Calling came out. Maybe even sooner. Hard to remember those sorts of details 25 years later.
