Joe Strummer- London Calling Radio Shows (1998-2001)
And so now I’d like to say – people can change anything they want to. And that means everything in the world. People are running about following their little tracks – I am one of them. But we’ve all got to stop just following our own little mouse trail. People can do anything ...
Between 1998 and 2001 The Punk Rock Warlord hosted his London Calling radio show for the BBC. I'm afraid the version I have here is only in 128kbps (I found them on an old disk), but a good listen anyhow.
Folk, Reggae, Cumbia, African music, Ska, Soul- a real mixture. You can get the playlists here...

Alexander Berkman
The People-the toilers of the world, the producers-comprise, to me, the
universe. They alone count. The rest are parasites, who have no right to
exist. But to the People belongs the earth-by right, if not in fact. To
make it so in fact, all means are justifiable; nay, advisable, even to
the point of taking life. The question of moral right in such matters
often agitated the revolutionary circles I used to frequent. I had
always taken the extreme view. The more radical the treatment, I held,
the quicker the cure. Society is a patient; sick constitutionally and
functionally. Surgical treatment is often imperative. The removal of a
tyrant is not merely justifiable; it is the highest duty of every true
revolutionist. Human life is, indeed, sacred and inviolate. But the
killing of a tyrant, of an enemy of the People, is in no way to be
considered as the taking of a life. A revolutionist would rather perish a
thousand times than be guilty of what is ordinarily called murder. In
truth, murder and Attentat' are to me opposite terms. To remove a tyrant
is an act of liberation, the giving of life and opportunity to an
oppressed people. True, the Cause often calls upon the revolutionist to
commit an unpleasant act; but it is the test of a true
revolutionist-nay, more, his pride-to sacrifice all merely human feeling
at the call of the People's Cause. If the latter demand his life, so
much the better.
