Don't know if it's true or not but it was said that photographer Pennie Smith didn't want to use the photo of Paul smashing his bass because it was too out of focus, but Joe Strummer said it would make a good album cover, in recent years it has been said to be one of the best rock photos of all time.
I actually used that pic as an av, coloured it and reduced it ... looked good too.
I saw the Clash in Cardiff during the early years, along with the Buzzcocks and the Slits. A wild experience, worrying really, me and my mate, in the crowd of punks and skins, with our long hair in ponytails ... They had a run in with the bikers there if I remember rightly. Happy days.
