So I've recently read that Mick did a soundtrack for Hell W10 that Joe rejected and then the Combat Rock instrumentals were eventually used. I wonder if this soundtrack still exists? Also a 15 minute version of "Sean Flynn" possibly recorded at Marcus Music. Any ideas Teddy?

Mick was a hoarder, wasn't he, so you'd never know. I wonder if some of it ended up on the first BAD album?

Yeah me too. It is said to be a hip-hop style soundtrack so that would fit.

Boy, Mick was having some bad luck getting his work accepted.

After all the recent chat, I've started a note-for-note recreation of Dictator as heard on the Cut the Crap. So far, I have drums and marimbas.

Learn something new everyday in Clash world.

Wahington Bullets : The marimba part is an altered version of the melody from "Turkey in the Straw".

An observation: the Munich 77 show is so weird because the house lights are on the whole time. Was that a university show or something?

The concert was at "Schwabinger Bräu" which I think is an old beer hall. Schwabinger Bach is a stream in Munich so I guess it takes it's name from that. Looking across the net it has hosted a lot of artists. Cure/Talikng Heads/Siouxsie/AC/DC ...

Cool find. I hear a faint element of Lose This Skin in there too. The motif that starts in the beginning is "while we're young and almost free" from LTS, notewise (I think).

edit: plus it's played before that lyric
