Thanks for this post, I too miss Joe. My biggest mistake was to dismiss Strummer upon release of Cut the Crap, one of the worst albums I have ever suffered through. I thought to myself, well Stummer isn’t all that without t Mick or another clash mate. But I was wrong, dead wrong. I took a while to even pick up one of his solo albums, but once I reconnected, I realized what I had missed. His death floored me. What a loss, we can use him now.
Funny I see him stepping up to this madness, like Neil Young has had to. Where is the spine from this generation?

In all likelihood, Joe Strummer played in Portland’s best independent store, Music Millennium (http://www.musicmillennium.com)
