The Clash - Supermega Blackmarket Clash

another clash related post for you all to hopefully enjoy comes this one inspired by the good folks at blackmarketclash.com .they published a list of artists who they said had covered clash songs and asked if anyone could send them the full list.i did a little digging through the muebles archives and using my crack team of researchers (ok my wife and one of my nephews!) managed to get most of them except police and thieves by buffalo tom.(yes i know its not a clash original but they made it their own).anyway i emailed buffalo tom and according to buffalo tom themselves they never covered the track but i did find a version they did of straight to hell so that is included in its place.some of these cover artists may surprise you and one of them almost isnt really a proper cover(if that makes sense!) but youll hear what i mean.anyhoo its over to you the listener to listen,enjoy and then leave a comment.thanks!

p.s one of the cover versions here isnt the best quality,sorry but its the only version i have.see if you can guess which one it is!

The Clash - If music could talk vol. 1 + 2

Repost : this is a strange clash boot for you all today.i got it as a 2 disk cd-r a few days ago and honestly had never heard of it before.it seems to be a compilation of other bootlegs from 'd.o.a' and 'rudeboy' etc.theres also some live tracks from unknown(to me anyway)sources but disk 2 has a few remixes etc that ive not heard recently and some mescaleros live pieces etc.also on disk 1 is a track called 'rudy ska' that is supposedly a recording from the clash and the specials but to me it doesnt sound like either of them(in fact i know it definitely isnt so not sure why its on here!).i think this bootleg was originally taken from vinyl sources or at least a vinyl version seems to exist.i must see if blackmarketclash.com have any info on its origin.so have a listen and tell me what you think.if anything its another for the clash completists out there.so then enjoy it and leave a comment.thanks!

The Prodigy - Ghost Town

beginning a new sort of series (after the specials video collection) comes the new flavour : specials cover versions.obviously the specials themselves recorded several covers but quite a few bands have done versions of specials songs.kicking of this little project is the prodigy with their version of ghost town.i believe it was first performed live at the reading festival in 1998 and was intended to be released as a single but ended up on an n.m.e compilation only.its a good version that i actually like and to be honest didnt think i would.it deserves a listen and i hope after listening and enjoying you leave a comment.thanks!

p.s dont worry there wont be any lily allen or amy shitehouse being posted here as i really hate them both.sorry

so pogo the night away with the dickies,listen out for the neighbours calling the police,then leave a comment.thanks!
