Though less celebrated than Joe Strummer, ex-Clash co-mastermind Mick Jones went on to a distinguished career with Big Audio Dymanite after being ousted by his bandmates post 1981's Combat Rock. B.A.D furthers expands on the third world dance floor sound that the Clash explored on Sandanista, and to great success. Included here are two tracks. The first is The Bottom Line from the 1985 debut This is Big Audio Dynamite, a dancefloor anthem for tough economic times. The second is Rush, from 1991's The Globe...see if you can spot the Who Sample. If I were a DJ, I would bust these both out from time to time.
