The legendary gig that Joe Strummer, singer from the Punk Rock
band ‘The Clash’, attended and inspired his writing their
classic track ‘White Man In Hammersmith Palais’ took place on
the 5 June 1977. At the Hammersmith Palais venue on Shepherds
Bush Road W.6, London during the height of Punk Mania. The
full line – up for the show were all Jamaican artists
Dillenger, Leroy Smart, Delroy Wilson (all the first time from
Jamaica) and Ken Boothe.
The artwork supplied by Punk Artist MAL-ONE has used the two
posters that were made for this gig , the reggae promoters
’Star Promotions’ poster, that contained a picture of Ken
Boothe and the venue’s own poster that used text to announce
its line-up for that evenings proformance.
The song itself became a` Clash Classic’ and also a Punk
Anthem, released on 16th June 1978. We have compiled this
album with songs by these artists , most of which you would
have heard that night. As a post script to this story when the
Hammersmith Palais sadly closed its doors for the last time
after 82 years service in 1999, the owners thought it fitting
to present Joe Strummer with a sign from the venue’s entrance.
Mr Strummer’s understated reply `I guess I’ll have to send a
man with a van round to pick it up’.
