“We all grew up with different influences and marveled or
enjoyed certain aspects of the “era” in which we discovered … life." For me it
was much about music, more than any other art form. Certainly, females, sports,
experimenting with ‘things’ and general trouble making were a part of it but as
I remember those times – music was always a part of it.”
The Clash, in my opinion is one of those bands that have
stood the test of time. Their songs are still played today from their
mid-seventies roots. Sure, they are not the Elvis, Rolling Stones or Led
Zeppelin but one must acknowledge their influence on the rock genre.
I jumped on The Clash bandwagon long after their hey-day but
still enjoy the contributions they have made to my personal walk down memory
lane. Somehow music triggers those fond memories of a youthful time when the
world had so many fewer worries.
