Safe European Home, The Clash (1978) The song is about a trip to Jamaica gone wrong, hence the lyrics “I went to the place where every white face is an invitation to robbery.”
Singer Joe Strummer and guitarist Mick Jones were sent to Jamaica for two weeks in December 1977 to write songs for their upcoming second album. “We must’ve looked like a strange pair to the locals… I’m surprised we weren’t filleted and served on a plate of chips” noted Jones. “We went down to the docks and I think we only survived because they mistook us for sailors.”Â

Saturday Matinee – Hahn Beer, Ten Years After, Samantha Fish & Justin Johnson
Here’s another.
Okay, I think I see a pattern. Here’s one more.
Okay, I’ll stop, but not before I link to this Danier Leather commercial.
Alvin Lee & Ten Years After‘s “I’m Going Home” is one of the greatest speed metal rock tribute songs ever, and this live version dates to 1969 – Woodstock. TYA had only one Top 40 hit.
How ’bout some Samantha Fish?
Definitely dangerous. Hand her something with four wires nailed to it and she’ll jam it down your throat. I want to hear what she can do with a diddley bow.
That’s Justin Johnson playing classic Son House on a custom-made glorified diddley bow.
Have a great three-day weekend folks and please remember what Memorial Day is all about. See you back here tomorrow.
