October the 16th 1989 myself and my friend Adam saw ex Clash frontman and national treasure Joe strummer perform at the Brighton Top Rank on the earthquake weather tour. On October the 17th 1989, the day after, myself and my friend Adam saw ex Clash bassist perform round the corner at the Richmond in Brighton in Havana 3 am. It was a bit sad, Havana 3 am were poor and there was no audience…

The band filmed the music video to rock the casbah, directed by Don Letts, in Austin Texas. Rock the casbah is cited as one of the band’s greatest singles and a significant song in rock history.

The band played a concert at Bond’s International Casino in New York. This was part of the highly publicised residency at Bond’s, which ran through May and June of 1981.
