The Clash - Rettel Festival 1980 repost


ive been meaning to post some clash for a while but for some reason ive not got around to doing it until now.this is what www.blackmarketclash.com had to say about this show."Sourced from an FM radio broadcast this has a great sound, the best from this European/UK final leg of the 16 Tons Tour. It’s the best sounding source for hearing the particular live sound The Clash were producing at this stage in their history; very tight and dominated by Mick’s effects heavy lead guitar, played in a great mixture of short solo bursts and punk power chords."its only 9 songs but bmc explains why.anyway more new clash live stuff to come soon and some re-posts as well.so over to you to listen to this loud,enjoy and then leave a comment.thanks!

Thanks man! This might be my favorite live Clash boot I've heard!

Your blog has recently become one of my must-checks. Thanks for the effort and all the great music.

Agree. At least from the early years. The best period is Sandinista, according to me and San Sebastian is truly the most amazing gig I've seen and heard.

Cheers for the blog mate, great stuff. Do you have The Men They Couldn't Hang Peel Sessions.

Thanx, I've been looking for long to it. I was there. Long time ago!
The show was incredible and turned to riot under the rain in the mud. Roxy Music which was scheduled just after The Clash prefered to cancel their gig, so the band could play much longer than previously expected. Another big moment was The Cure. Unforgettable day..
