  1. “They all got wet when he smashed that thing … “

    September 20, 1979 ~ Paul Simonon, frustrated because the crowd at The Palladium in New York City isn't standing, smashes his instrument on stage. The shot is snapped by Pennie Smith, who thinks it is too blurry, but the album's art director loves it and gives it the cover. The visual becomes one of the iconic moments and photos of rock. #TheClash #londoncalling #paulsimonon #penniesmith #70smusic #music #70srock #rock
