The Clash - The Card Cheat

My favorite track from one of the best albums ever recorded. I remember seeing The Clash in concert in Brixton but by that time they had descended into Rock the Casbah banality. I went to that concert with Eliseo "Dagger" D'Agostino, my best friend in college, to whom this post is dedicated. In fact, Dagger introduced me to much of the music I've posted this month, and we went to a bunch of great concerts together, including Orange Juice in Birmingham, The Psychedelic Furs in Southamption, and Spear of Destiny and Killing Joke, both in London. Dagger was events manager at Southampton University for a year and booked some interesting bands, including The Fall, Thompson Twins, Monochrome Set, Dead Kennedys and Maximum Joy. I'll post some of these too at some point.
