Clash - Live - Revolution Rock

I love this DVD because I love The Clash, this is a must have for Clash Fans I don't consider there genre Punk they hit on everything from rockabilly, reggae, Dub, Hip-hop, and Funk. I especially love the live video for Clampdown the way Joe Strummer was feeding off of Topper Headon on drums pure passion and energy he started that rocking and leg shaking like Joe Strummer does the vibe in the crowd was amazing (R.I.P. Joe Strummer). I only wish that I could have seen them live Mick Jones, Paul Simonon, Topper Headon and Joe Strummer. I believe this is how a band should be measured by great strings, drums and lyrical content which the class hits on all. I will even tell a true story, I was entering the elevator in my apartment building and saw a young man probably in his late teens wearing a London Calling Album t-shirt( I have the same t-shirt), I asked him do he like the Clash he said I love the Clash "there music is relevant today, so true.

Didnt realise I could order from US website with my UK details which was fantastic. - Hats off to Amazon!Quality of product? well if you order anything with The Clash Or Joe Strummer and are a fan, you hope you wont be let down.This is class - some old - some new - Don Letts always ensures quality.Value for money and post from US to UK - less than a tenner.Buy this if you are a fan - you wont be disappointed.WoodyDerby,England

If you're a Clash fan trying to teach your children about what you listened to when you were their age, then this is the second vid to start with. Start out with "Westway to the World".After watching this with my daughter she now has some Clash on her ipod. We went for a drive the other day and she asked to listen to "I fought the Law". It made me want to cry.Buy it for the moments that count.

Love it

I bought this for my dad for his birthday. He loved it! I also enjoy the clash and loved it too!

This is pretty much just a rehash of videos and clips from the other two Clash DVDs already available (The Essential Clash and Rude Boy).There is some new stuff (new to an official DVD, not to die hard fans). Except for the Tom Snyder and Fridays performances, all are available on popular DVD bootlegs in just as good quality - in the case of the Tokyo '82 footage, the bootleg is actually much better quality, don't know what happened there.The Fridays performance is cool to see in good quality but frustrating as they did 3 other songs which are not included. And the other songs were blistering performances of London Calling, Clampdown and Train In Vain. No offense to Paul Simonon, but I'd rather see any of those than Guns Of Brixton.And why is the Tommy Gun music video just randomly thrown into the middle of this? It's not live. Bizarre.London's Burning and White Man In Hammersmith Palais, which were interrupted or incomplete in the Rude Boy film are presented the same way here. London Calling is also incomplete, it's from The Clash On Broadway Trailer that is on The Essential Clash DVD.If your a new fan, this will be decent but you might as well just get The Essential Clash DVD. It's much better. After that if you want to see more live footage, get Rude Boy. Then if you really want to plunge into the TV appearances and rare live footage just get the popular DVD bootlegs "The Clash On TV" volumes one and two. Some good quality unauthorized concert DVDs available right here on Amazon are The Clash In Tokyo 1982 and The Clash in Paris 1980. Some good quality full concert bootleg DVDs are The US Festival 1983 and The Clash in Passaic, New Jersey 1980. Then you'll pretty much have everything out there. And no need for this DVD, unless you must have the 2 Tom Snyder performances and 1 Fridays performance in the absolute best quality.

I just watched portions of this DVD on KQED Public Television here in San Francisco during their pledge drive. The performances are raw, and powerful, and fun. Some (much?) of the footage has never been seen before and I can't wait to get this for myself and friends.

This is a killer DVD even tho most of it already available. The naration/no-naration option is very welcome. The naration is short and un-abtrusive. If you have 1 CLASH dvd this - should be it. If you have 1 music dvd - this should be it. If you 1 dvd - this should be it.
