  Since their earliest incantation as contenders, along the with the Sex Pistols, for the title of most crucial punk band, the Clash have achieved the status of one of the all-time great rock `n' roll bands. In 1991 their re-released single Should I Stay Or Should I Go? reached number 1 in the UK, proving that the band now have a new generation of keen fans as well as a loyal following from the early days. Astonishingly, no full critical biography of the band has been written. This book will look at the contribution of each member of the band (Joe Strummer, Mick Jones, Paul Simonon and Topper Headon) to the unique mix of passion, aggression, intelligence, wit and self-mythologising which ensured this iconoclastic punk band's enduring popularity.
