Strummer In The City
- 22 Jun 07, 10:04 AM
Tonight on the Late Show, Radio Ulster, 10pm, a tribute to Joe Strummer. It’s not like we need much of an excuse to load up on old Clash tunes, but a magnificent film: ‘’ opens at the Queen’s Film Theatre this evening. It’s in town for a week, and it really is a thrill, an education and a reminder of how far a bit of humanity can take you in rock and roll.
We’ve also got a world exclusive, a Joe track called ‘Divorcing Jack’ which has never been played before. It was written to the film of the same name and writer Colin Bateman has been keeping it to himself for many years. We’ll also be hearing testimonies from the likes of David Holmes and Brian Young of Rudi fame, while I’ll be dusting down an old interview with Joe and myself from 1999. Don’t touch that dial!

Enjoying the show, actually know Fintan Murray, who commented earlier (from about 25 years ago) in west belfast. Saw the Clash outside Denver Colorado, in early 1982 live at Redrocks, it still stands out as the best concert I ever saw, the energy coming from the clash that night, I have never experienced since. The background stage show with images concentrated a lot on Belfast and all that was going on here at the time, which made it even more special for my brothers and I who were living in Denver at the time.
