THE POGUES WITH JOE STRUMMER: 1987

Before getting to this: Fellow Clash obsessives will want to visit “Music Ruined My Life for this post. He’s got a full DL of the classic “Give em enough dope” boot collection up right now, one of the many I’ve been planning to share with y’all at some point. It’s one of the best quality boots I’ve ever heard, and it has an absolutely stellar version of “Train in Vain.”

As for today’s post: The sound is a little muffled on this December 1 bootleg from Boston, 1987, but hearing Joe play with Shane is worth it. Especially on songs like “If I Should Fall From Grace With God” and “London Calling.”

As always, a few tastes and then the zip, which is an .rar this time.
