One of the greatest bands of all time, The Clash helped pioneer the punk rock explosion of the mid '70s following infamous tours with the Sex Pistols. In late 1979, The Clash released their career-defining album, 'London Calling' - named best album of the 1980s by Rolling Stone magazine - while the band's political lyrics, musical experimentation and rebellious attitude had a far-reaching influence on alternative music around the world.
Featuring the famous line-up of Joe Strummer (lead vocals + rhythm guitar); Mick Jones (lead guitar + vocals), Paul Simonon (bass, backing vocals + occasional lead vocals) & Nicky "Topper" Headon (drums + percussion), The Clash are seen here on this DVD playing live in Paris during 1980 - a rarely-seen performance that finds the band in devastating, career-peak form.
'Live in Paris, 1980' includes the punk anthems: "Jimmy Jazz"; "London Calling"; "Protex Blue"; Train in Vain"; "Koka Kola"; "I Fought the Law"; "Spanish Bombs"; "Wrong 'Em Bombs"; "Stay Free"; "Janie Jones"; "Complete Control"; "Garage Land"; and "Tommy Gun".
