Yeah... but I love it too that they later say they really loved Elvis, Beatles and The Rolling Stones, it was manager Bernie Rhodes who came up with that, and they wanted to get out a certain message, like, 'this is over, it's time for something else.. *punk!'* And in 'The Future's Unwritten' docu you hear Joe saying that when he was at school he heard the Stones for the first time bursting out of this wooden radio, and he loved the rawness of it immediately. They were the rebels of the '60s together with countless others who got it from the Stones/British Invasion.

It's hilarious because I think the stones were one of Mick's top influences. And the whole "I went to see my baby and she wasn't there" really fits into his own style of songwriting (in the best way!) They're really just trying to put on a show for this interviewer who seems to constantly be on the verge of outright calling them phonies.

+Philip Quinton you reckon - even more than the contrived accent of (son of a diplomat, public school boy) Joe Strummer?

they thought tony parsons stabbed them in the back eventually, didn't they? with 'the boy looked at johnny' or whatever it's called

Wdym? 😂 he isn't faking his accent and why would he want to?

I think he always sounded about the same...who cares.

Aren't most people educated in public schools? That's what we have in the US. But most government-funded systems, (medical, school system, etc.) are shit.

@@JoseGranny public schools in the U.K. are actually private fee paying. Classic British misnaming in order to confuse people.
