Get to know Joe Strummer.

If all you know about Joe Strummer is that he was the lead singer for the The Clash then go pick up Rock Art and the X-Ray Style, Global A Go-Go, or Streetcore the albums he recorded with his get-up The Mescaleros. In my admittedly all-over-map opinion these albums include some of the best songs of Joe’s all too short life. Some of my favorites are Mega Bottle Ride from Global A  Go-Go, Yalla Yalla from X-Ray Style, and Ramshackle Day Parade on Streetcore.
