Reading further on Wire get a few unfavourable comments and it seems that Graham Lewis must have really upset him... but not as much as Joe Strummer seems to have. P.S. If you are a big Joe Strummer/Clash fan do not read!! ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 11 Dec 2009 15:09:51 -0000 From: "Bruno Clements" Subject: Re: [idealcopy] Who Upset Mr Cope Why not? I pretty much agree with his take on Strummer/Clash but (some of) the music transcends it... Haven't read it all but that's the point Copey may have missed. You're not actually required to like the musicians to like the music.

Cope obviously admires Strummer enough to name last years short busking tour after him. And to play an acoustic Rock the Casbah at one of the stops. I saw the Liverpool stop - a lengthy Sleeping Gas in the freezing cold. You can watch it here..
