    are they actually in a minor key, or is the tape just stretched out?

    You know that Joe Ely sang backing vocals on "Should I Stay or Shoud I Go Now?"

    The Clash saw Ely in London and loved him, so they decided to do a mini-tour of Texas with him.

    I so wish I had been able to see this live

    Ely's own first, self-titled album, was released in 1977.[3]

    The following year, his band played London, where he met punk rock group The Clash.[3][4] Impressed with each other's performances, the two bands later toured together, including appearances in Ely's hometown of Lubbock as well as Laredo and Ciudad Juárez in Mexico across the border from El Paso, Texas.[3] The Clash paid tribute to Joe Ely by including the lyrics "Well there ain't no better blend than Joe Ely and his Texas Men" in the lyrics of their song "If Music Could Talk", which was released in 1980 on the album Sandinista![5] Ely sang backing vocals on the Clash single "Should I Stay or Should I Go". Joe Strummer planned to record with Ely's band but died before that ever happened—one of Ely's greatest regrets.[6]

    The border towns (Villa Acuna, Nuevo Laredo, Juarez, the Valley, etc...) were so much fun, and so different, back in the 80-90's
