Did you know that Paul Simonon is a really talented painter?
Me neither. But he’s actually incredibly good. No wonder: he trained as a fine artist before becoming the bass player in the Clash. He was always the most stylish member, and naturally, he was also responsible for their fashion and visual image. Those punk kids on the street with Jackson Pollock paint-splattered, Pop Art stencil-lettered jean jackets and army surplus gear? Now you know who invented it. In 1978.
