So which boot is that exactly?
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Sounds very much to me like Mick Jones is singing a backing vocal as well as lead vocal on the track until Joe Strummer joins in with the "sounds like murder are they drunk down below" line and then Mick comes back in with H.O.M.I.C.I.D.E. murder!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, I was confused as to whether it was 6/4/81 like my google search told me or 6/9/81 like my Clash instincts told me.

Sandinista - Mick sings all vocal parts on the chorus - the lead low harmony and the two (my bad ears tell me two, not one) highly reverbed high harmonies. Live, Mick, Joe and Paul would all shout the same melody "Got Murdered!" with Paul not really being audible.

only 6/8 and 6/9 exists in soundboard quality. the 6/4 date is incorrect. chaos in new york is from 6/9

"The complete unedited concert presumably from the unedited FM (backdoor) source, circulates under several titles including 'Bondage at Bonds’, 'Straight to Hell' and ‘Chaos In New York’"

From 6/8 it's just the song Bankrobber though, not the whole show, right?
