“This is Joe in a recording studio in Soho where he was producing The Little Roosters ‘I Need a Witness’ in a short break from working with The Clash. I was a little nervous to meet someone who was such an icon of the punk scene, but he was extremely laid-back and friendly, if pre-occupied. The first time I saw The Clash was on the afternoon of 6th September 1976 at the Roundhouse in Chalk Farm, which was one of their first shows. Punk was still in its infancy and hardly anyone knew who The Clash were. They were the first band on the bill supporting the Kursaal Flyers and Crazy Cavan. Joe was frustrated with the crowd; everyone was sitting on the floor and no-one responded to their music. In desperation, he began spitting at the audience. Two years later he got hepatitis from someone spitting back at him.” David Corio
