I am somewhat ashamed to say that Big Audio Dynamite have never graced these pages before. So time to right that wrong.
You should all be familiar with who they are - the band set up by Mick Jones after he was ousted The Only Band That Matters
One of the first bands to combine guitar based rock with hip hop,sound bytes and electronic effects.
A song from each of the first two albums for you
From 1985's This is Big Audio Dynamite and co-written by Mick Jones and Don Letts we have E=MC2 followed by a Strummer/Jones composition V Thirteen from 1986's No. 10, Upping Street
For all things Big Audio Dynamite can I refer you to the ever informative Swiss Adam
Big Audio Dynamite - E=MC2
Big Audio Dynamite - V Thirteen
The first 4 albums still sound absolutely great.
