The Clash: Palais des Glaces, Paris

Live Review by Vivien Goldman, Sounds, 7 May 1977

Rob Symmons [Subway Sect] interviewed in 1999, who had this to say:

"The first phase was when we played the 100 Club, the Royal College of Art, the ICA and the Lacey Lady, all with the Clash and with no one there. That was with the Clash there, in London, and there was literally no one there. Then we stopped for a bit that winter, rehearsed loads, wrote loads of songs, did Harlesden, and then stripped it down more for the White Riot tour. Before the UK dates for that, we started off going over to France...

There was supposed to be a lot but they all got cancelled. We did about three - there was Rouen and another place in the outskirts of France. We played this cinema in Paris, which was supposed to be this famous place where Johnny Halliday played, and the Rolling Stones in about 1963. It was all seated with lots of older people there, so that was quite strange."Around 500 people there.

1977

This show has been recorded by a guy named Pascal REGOLI (Angel Face Bass player) with a Uher 4200 Report IC.

It's a quite good remastered audience recording. He recorded every live show he attended during 75/76/77/78.

Skydog, a well know record shop and the record label from Marc Zermati organised the 4 day Punk festival 'Les Nuits de Punk'.

On 28th March, STINKY TOYS from Paris, POLICE, JAM, WAYNE COUNTY and finally GENARATION X played. You can see most of them in the punk movies “ACCELARATION PUNK”, especially, the great WAYNE COUNTY transvestite. A great night, but very bad sound cost the foregone sonorisation was replace by those of SHAKIN’ STREET, a local band.

On April 28th, the SUBWAY SECT and The CLASH.

“That’s Paris, Punks?” began Joe in French “You’re just hippies! Let’s go to San Francisco” to the poseurs. 500 people, a great show with loud voices, noisy guitars and incredible rhythm. 2 ovations.

After the show, the group found the DAMNED at “Le gibus” -a local club - and played together again: “Gloria” from THEM.

The evening finished at Marc Zermati’s discussing the old album of BOB DYLAN “Blonde on Blonde” and listening to old Motown singles.
