Two of the best songs from "London Calling," performed live on SNL knockoff, "Fridays." See Joe Strummer play bass.

There's no comments on THIS? God, I remember this like it was yesterday. Fridays was almost uncanny in its ability to book emerging legends at their absolute prime and then draw fantastic performances out of them, and this is no exception. I mean, how could you be a 12 year old watching this and not be absolutely blown away? Thank god this is available for a new generation to see. A time machine, this—just magic.
