In this episode, I chat to Danny Kilmartin about the iconic and ground breaking punk rock band The Clash. We discuss the culture of 1970s Britain and its influence on the band. We also discuss the band's genre hopping and love affair with reggae. We talk about the dynamic between Mick Jones and Joe Strummer ⁠— and Joe's passion for activism and socialist politics.
