Go Easy, Step Lightly, Stay Free

On this day, we lost two of the greats much too early. Both Joe Strummer and D. Boon encompass what art should be about. Open-minded, unapologetic, edgy, political. If ever the word inspiration was needed, it's to describe this music.

This is I Felt Like A Gringo from the "Acoustic Blowout" show, which is included as part of the bonus goodies from the We Jam Econo documentary (if you haven't seen this, go watch it. Right now.)



This is a great performance of Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros at the Roseland Ballroom in NYC from 1999. Music doesn't get better than this.
