 * (JP: 'There's a story which I've been telling for about six, seven or eight years now, about the only time that I ever met Joe Strummer. There was a reception in London for one of those groups of kind of South London soul boys, who were going to take over the entire world, but then disappeared without trace after their record companies lost interest in them. And I was sitting there, talking to one or two Radio One producers, and he came over, sat down and started talking to us as well. We talked about old records, and this and that, life, as one does, and one of his mates came over. This was in the days when they were wearing silly Mexican hats. One of his mates came over and said, "Come on Joe, time we were going", and he said something like, I thought, "Can't you see I'm working?". Now, that upset me quite a bit as you might imagine, because it seemed to be a very rude thing to say. So yesterday, I was walking, no last week it was, I was walking back to the BBC, and he came across the street! Joe Strummer came up and said, "That story you've been telling about me...", and I thought, hello, this is the severe battering that I'm going to get here. And he said, "...it's simply not true", and he told me what he'd actually said, or explained the circumstances to me. Being a coward, I was prepared to accept Joe's explanation of what had taken place, so, by way of compensation after all these years...')
