Joe Strummer - Live on the Jools Holland Show

This post is a great joe strummer and the mescaleros mini show recorded live on the jools holland show sometime back in 2000. its 4 tracks  (well technically 5 if you count the opening 'jam')and features 2 tracks from the clash and 2 from the mescaleros. really good sound quality so i can only assume this was taken from a video rip or something like that. anyways thanks to reggie for this, its a really nice addition to my clash/joe strummer collection. so please listen, enjoy and then leave a comment.you know it makes sense.dont forget to include repost requests etc in the comments too or if there is anything in particular you would like to see you only have to ask.thanks very much.
