The Clash in a Checker Taxi, New York City 1982
1980sThe only band that matters!
Bucks Fizz are the only band that matters, mate.
BLASPHEMY!
The little skirt number they did was cute
Incorrect my internet neighbor. It’s The Clash.
They just wanted to be the Stones.

The Cabbie he don't like it
"Come on, are you guys staying or are you going?"
What is Mick holding? It looks like an Xbox controller, but it can't be!
Some sort of glasses - maybe sunglasses, maybe rX, hard to say.
Ah, I see it now. Thanks.
Sunglasses, the desert style that you saw back in the 80s.
Thought that was James Willems for a second.
Rock the Cabs-ba
Right before Mick left and "ThE cLaSH" released the atrocious 'Cut The Crap' album.
Is that Dan Hedaya driving?
Did Hugh Laurie get attached to that red beret?
Wow, what a setting! The Clash in a Checker Taxi in New York City in 1982 sounds like the start of a wild adventure. I can imagine the band cruising through the bustling streets, turning heads left and right. It must have been quite the sight to see those punk rock legends in a classic Checker Taxi, rocking out as they made their way through the city that never sleeps.
What did I just read?
Seems AI-generated
This was sort of their last fanfare. Their music was on the decline, they'd lost their edge and their image was all over the place.
e2a, Good lord, some people in this group are so touchy. You really need to get a life if you're feeling defensive about the Clash breaking up 40 fucking years ago.
What decline? "Should I stay or should I go?" , "Rock the Casbah", "Straight to Hell". All from their 1982 "Combat Rock" album.
What decline?
Are they still playing? No.
I rest my case
Not quite. Topper is still there and Combat Rock has some bangers. But the end is in the wind here, for sure, alas.
"I'm so bored with the USA!"
No you weren't, you were besotted with it, and also trying to be Keith Richards.
Still love 'em, though.
The best old school cool possible. This was probably during their legendary stand at Bond’s.
Bonus points for both the Clash and the Checker. Wistful here as a born and raised nyc guy.
RIP Joe.
