The Clash - Topper - Soundcheck (he bangs the drums) - Limited Edition Print (1 of 79)

Colourful ink | The beat of the band | Black, blue, pink and orange make up this powerful piece, capturing Topper Headon doing what he does the best. This image exudes the ferocity and energy he brought to the kit, captured beautifully on a day of soundchecks in the USA back in September '79' |

" After intense rehearsals and sound - checking through the 11th September, the band played the biggest event I'd witnessed them handle thus far. The Yankee audience were noisily anticipatory and The Clash didn't disappoint them. The crowds of well wishers I spoke to after the Minneapolis shows were largely rapturous in their praise and boisterous admiration. Another win for the boys supported this time by The Undertones. Feargal to audience " I'm not English and I'm proud of it ". Cheers. " - Ray Lowry
