I've been pondering the idea and felt compelled to try something new.. posting fun retro tracks that everyone can enjoy, so to start of this new tradition here is a track from The Clash!
The Clash - Rock the Casbah
Flashback:
The Clash were an English punk rock band, active from mid 70's to mid 80's and were part of the original wave of UK punk. The song "Rock the Casbah" lyrics include a mixture of Arabic, Hebrew, Hindi, and North African terms such as sharif, bedouin, sheikh, kosher, raga, muezzin, and casbah. Some theories indicate that the song was inspired by the ban of rock music in Iran under Ayatollah Khomeini. The King ordered jet fighters to bomb any people in violation of the ban. The pilots ignored the orders, and instead played rock music on their cockpit radios.
Is it just me, or does this track have remix potential?
