1977


The taper

This show has been recorded by a guy named Pascal REGOLI (Angel Face Bass player) with a Uher 4200 Report IC.

It's a quite good remastered audience recording. He recorded every live show he attended during 75/76/77/78.



Le Glibus Club

After The Clash had finished at the Palais Des Glaces they met The Damned at Le Gibus Club.

Both venues are in Paris. Sensible, Scabies, Strummer and Jones did play some covers including Gloria, No Fun, Anarchy In The UK. After the Gibus Club the bands went back to Marc Zermati's house.





Four day Punk Festival

Skydog, a well know record shop and the record label from Marc Zermati organised the 4 day Punk festival 'Les Nuits de Punk'.

On 28th March, STINKY TOYS from Paris, POLICE, JAM, WAYNE COUNTY and finally GENARATION X played. You can see most of them in the punk movies "ACCELARATION PUNK", especially, the great WAYNE COUNTY transvestite. A great night, but very bad sound cost the foregone sonorisation was replace by those of SHAKIN' STREET, a local band.

On April 28th, the SUBWAY SECT and The CLASH.

"That's Paris, Punks?" began Joe in French "You're just hippies! Let's go to San Francisco" to the poseurs. 500 people, a great show with loud voices, noisy guitars and incredible rhythm. 2 ovations.

After the show, the group found the DAMNED at "Le gibus" -a local club - and played together again: "Gloria" from THEM.

The evening finished at Marc Zermati's discussing the old album of BOB DYLAN "Blonde on Blonde" and listening to old Motown singles. 





from Best Magazine

Rob Symmons [Subway Sect] interviewed in 1999,

"The first phase was when we played the 100 Club, the Royal College of Art, the ICA and the Lacey Lady, all with the Clash and with no one there. That was with the Clash there, in London, and there was literally no one there.

Then we stopped for a bit that winter, rehearsed loads, wrote loads of songs, did Harlesden, and then stripped it down more for the White Riot tour.

Before the UK dates for that, we started off going over to France...

There was supposed to be a lot but they all got cancelled. We did about three - there was Rouen and another place in the outskirts of France.

We played this cinema in Paris, which was supposed to be this famous place where Johnny Halliday played, and the Rolling Stones in about 1963. It was all seated with lots of older people there, so that was quite strange."

The Clash at the Palais des Glaces, Paris

This may not be Topper's second gig but his third (plus a cameo with the Damned in Paris). We believe they played Le Mans, Rouen and Paris, the other dates were cancelled.

Finishing reading this precious and essential special Punk d'ici issue of @Gonzai I suddenly learned 43 years later that I had not attended the first Clash concert in France but the second!! They had played the day before in Rouen! Life, certainties...

Joe Strummer on John Lennon

"Was Joe Strummer really critical on John Lennon?"

According to Bob Gruen, at a show in England, after the Clash performed "1977", Joe proclaimed, "But John Lennon Rules!" (after singing "no Elvis, Beatles, or the Rolling Stones") And Gruen claims that there is similarity between what both of the two had done. 

What Joe was critical about was rather Paul McCartney. And some insist that Joe was a huge Lennon fan. 

"But John Lennon Rules OK?"

(from my book)

"Positive light to the darkness of the Sex Pistols, the Clash released an incendiary eponymously titled first album in 1977, the year of punk, a Top Ten hit. With Strummer at the helm, the group toured incessantly: at a show that year at the University of Leeds, he delivered the customary diatribe of the times: 'No Elvis, Beatles or Rolling Stones… But John Lennon rules, OK?' He barked, revealing a principal influence and hero of his own…"

(from Chris Salewicz's book, "Redemption Song: the definitive biography of Joe Strummer")
