Armagideon Time - The Clash - London 79


Wikipedia - "'Armagideon Time' (spelt as 'Armigedeon Time' in some versions) is a song by Jamaican reggae musician Willie Williams. It was produced by Clement 'Coxsone' Dodd, who used the 'Real Rock' riddim. It was first recorded in 1977 at Jamaica Recording Studio in Kingston, Jamaica, and released as a single in 1979 via Studio One. The single was re-released in 1980 and 1982 through Coxsone Records as a title track to Williams' second studio album of the same name. Clash vocalist Joe Strummer asked Vinyl to stop the recording at that point in the song - something that Vinyl did by announcing the time to the band through the studio intercom: 'All right, time's up! Let's have you out of there!'. However, Strummer felt the band was on fire with this take and spat his retort of 'Ok, ok! Don't push us when we're hot!' in time to the rhythm. ..."
