Armageddon Amuse Bouche!

Listening to Def Leppard I was not reminded of these two great songs, but both come to mind when I’m in an armageddon frame of mind.

There is a 12″ cover of the Willie Williams song, by the Clash, which I own, that goes beyond beyond. It doesn’t make me want to smoke pot, it makes me feel like I’ve smoked pot, and while the 7″ version that I found on YouTube is pretty great, it isn’t the best. While the original, which I have the 7″ of, too, is very very fine.

Patti Smith, of course. Though she screws up the armageddon line. But they’re in Sweden in 1976. Sweet.

  1. Lenny Kaye playing bass, cool. I like the Willie WIlliams, I’d only ever heard the Clash’s version. You thought I was gonna play it but instead I will post the dreaded dread of reggae jazz. I don’t care, it’s a great version of a great tune.
