Joe and the Clash in France

Paris calling

Rachid Taha was just one of the musicians inspired by the Clash's visit to Paris in 1981. John Lewis explores the band's enduring influence in France...

Likes the warm feeling but is tired of all the dehydration.

Rachid Taha ain't bad. Try and find "Rock el Casbah", his cover of "Rock the Casbah"!
Then they'll take you to Cloughprior
Shove you in the ground
But you'll stick your head back out and shout
"Let's have another round!"

Better still, buy the Rock The Casbah compilation CD which, in addition to Tachid, shows the diversity of pop and rock voices in the "Islamic" world. It was our intermission music for a while, couple of years back.

Thanks Philip

Note: while purchasing this CD I found that is is actually spelled Rock The Kasbah
