Dark Horse Records releases Joe Strummer & the Mescaleros iconic Live at Acton Town Hall concert, remastered by Grammy Award Winner Paul Hicks (The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, George Harrison) and available on 2LP black vinyl.

Recorded on November 15, 2002, the concert was a benefit for striking firefighters and would be one of Joe's last performances (he passed away a month later.) The performance features a three-song reunion with Strummer's former bandmate from The Clash, Mick Jones, who reunited on stage for the first time in almost 20 years. It would also be their last time on stage together.

The double LP is packaged in a gatefold jacket featuring never-before-seen photos from the show, plus new
liner notes from former Fire Brigade Union Secretary Andy Gilchrist, who introduced the band at the show
and led the strikes Joe was supporting.

Strummer & Mick Jones at their best! posted on 03/26/2024 5 Stars Reviewer: Tunes This is a fantastic live recording with a range of tracks from The Clash and The Mescaleros. Mick Jones on several tracks - Police & Thieves, for example, is the best version I've ever heard. The recording captures the room's sound and the band's incredible energy. My God, I miss this man!!! The vinyl is solid - a treat for the collection. An instant favorite as the band jumps back and forth between Clash classics and the Mescaleros innovative rock.
