Nice one. If you’re on FB, let Stewart know the date by commenting.River wrote: ↑16 Jul 2019, 1:47amThink I figured it out already, it's from October 22nd, 1981, at the Lyceum. Just compared the audio, Joe's lines match up with what's on the video, and same with his scream right before the solo. Judged it initially by the outfits which I remember seeing from pics during their residency at the Lyceum. Never would've expected Stewart Copeland to film a part of Clash gig.
He was quite the documentarian, from what I understand.River wrote: ↑16 Jul 2019, 1:47amThink I figured it out already, it's from October 22nd, 1981, at the Lyceum.

I like the footage, but Copeland's dorky narration I can do without!white man wrote: ↑17 Jul 2019, 12:01pmEveryone Stares is a great Doc/Home MovieKory wrote: ↑16 Jul 2019, 4:46pmHe was quite the documentarian, from what I understand.River wrote: ↑16 Jul 2019, 1:47amThink I figured it out already, it's from October 22nd, 1981, at the Lyceum.

Yeah 'cause Bernie had never heard of The Equals.Hammy wrote: ↑21 Jul 2019, 4:36ami've seen interview where Copelnad just basically said the Police took their whole blueprint from "police & thieves' and singles out Topper's capability
young punks won't remember how huge 'White Reggae' was in (in UK) for 78/79 but Bernie's not exaggerating when he bigs himself up for getting some kind of Black/White fusion up & running...
