Quick question: Were there any publicity photos of the Clash with Terry during his initial time with the band? Studio or outdoor shots, not live.

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.

Yeah that's a good pic. However Heston is asking about a promo pic with Terry from the 1st album era.

Isn't there one in the Clash on Broadway booklet?

I'm not sure these qualify as an official publicity shot, but found them on the internet.

Cheers Sparky but I meant publicity shots rather than live.

Got it, thanks for clarifying. I just searched via Google, can't find a single one. I wonder if any exist?

He looks so out of place with the band. Not sure if that's just because I'm used to topper.
