The Clash: The Street Parade

While the Clash's Sandinista! album, in my opinion, has aged poorly, this song still stands out. And it's an ignored track, "The Street Parade," despite the bizarre sound effects that kick it off.

I suspect that Topper Headon, the Clash's drummer and a huge fan of Stax and Motown, was behind it. Because this tune has a real soul feel to it.

And if by any chance you were dumped recently, this song has great advice. 

Get out there and join The Street Parade.
