Big Audio Dynamite played a great show at Roseland tonight. I hadn't seen BAD in about 20 years and they were in fine form. It was great in particular to see front man Mick Jones. He is a fine guitarist. Watching him made me think of all those great riffs he did on those early Clash (his first and better known band) that rip through you like a buzzsaw.
This was pretty much the original line up of BAD which included famed film maker Don Letts (Third World Cop). They performed many of my favorites including E=MC2, Bottom Line, and Rush.

How time goes by. I realized that is was just 30 years ago that I saw Mick and his mates in the Clash perform just a few blocks from Roseland at Bonds. They played over two weeks of shows at Bonds which was unheard of. That Clash on Broadway.

Great Show Mick .

I apologize to whatever band member this is, but I just can't stop myself:

Also, who would have predicted in '79 that Mick Jones and Donald Fagen's looks (if not their music) would converge so neatly?

That's Don Letts. Famed filmaker and colaberator with all things Clash. He directed the Jamaican thriller "Third World Cop."

Oh, my god.
