Trash City Radio Show Joe Strummer Birthday Tribute

On Tuesday, August 23, 2011 Joe Rebel aired this special edition of Trash City Radio Show, a 2-hour tribute in honor and memory of the mighty Joe Strummer, who would have turned 59 on August 21st. Here is the audio capture—the broadcast is filled with rarities and live tracks by The Clash and the Mescaleros, his collaborations with others, and some of his finest solo recordings—a fine way for us to celebrate the greatly missed, amazing soul that was Joe Strummer. May his energy and passion live on in all of us.
