This is the true story of the Clash as told by the insiders who toured and recorded with the Clash from the rough beginnings of the band to the conquest of America.

Essential viewing for every Clash fan, this incisive film features long-serving road manager and author Johnny Green who reveals the philosophy and the spirit which drove the band. Also featured are artist in residence Ray Lowry, publicist and writer Caroline Coon, keyboard player and 'Blockhead' Mickey Gallagher, official biographer Chris Salewicz, Don Letts (maker of the London's Calling film), the infamous Robin Banks the band's minder and trouble maker in residence, and Barry "Scratchy" Myers tour DJ.

Drawing on extensive footage of the Clash in performance as well as previously unseen drawings and cartoons by the legendary Ray Lowrie, this is as close as you'll ever get to being there.

Features London's Calling, Should I Stay Or Should I Go, Rock The Casbah, White Riot, Tommy Gun, Police And Thieves, Garageland, Safe European Home, Guns Of Brixton, Brand New Cadillac, The Magnificent Seven, Somebody Got Murdered, I Fought The Law, Clash City Rockers, White Man In Hammersmith Palais, Know Your Rights and more...

Accompanying the DVD is a 96 page book hand written by Ray Lowrie, featuring an extensive selection of the cartoons, writings and drawings completed during his time on the road as artist in residence with the Clash. In its own way, the inimitable style of Lowrie's work evokes the mood of the era almost as powerfully as the music itself.
