The Clash "Magnificent Seven" Ok, since a lot of people have been talking about the Clash lately, I thought it was only right to bring this jam up. I've been doing some research on the history of house/dance music and I found out that urban dance clubs and DJs back in the day used to spin this record a lot at house/techno parties (for those keeping up with house music history).

Along with Blondie's "Rapture", it was one of the very first ever rap-rock crossover songs, although it tilts more towards the former than the latter. It's on the "Sandinista!" album, which I recommend you go out buy immediately. [This message was edited Wed Mar 26 12:16:21 PST 2003 by JohnnyTheFox] | |

It goes to show just how versatile the Clash were. Could Guns-n-Roses do something as cool as that? Well...could they?

RADIO CLASH is the hardest Funk I've ever heard from any Punk band. This post not for the wimp contingent. All whiny wusses avert your eyes. | |
