5.0 out of 5 stars All hail the Punk Rock Warlord, 4 Jun 2007
By Mr. Mark Hargrave "Marky" (West Yorks UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A fitting tribute to a self titled Punk Rock Warlord and icon to a generation.

Here are some fantastic live Clash tracks and an assortment of Joe stuff (Mescaleros and 101ers and others)

Also included are interesting tracks picked and introduced by Joe himself. These range for Elvis to MC5 to U Roy and demonstrate the versatility and diversity of the great man and his musical interests.

Highlights for me were; a blistering incendiary live version of White Riot, Trash City by Latino Rockabilly War (does Joe sing on this?) and Nervous Breakdown by Eddie Cochran.
There's even a few comments from friends and colleagues thrown in for good measure.

All in all a must buy for any Clash or Strummer fan.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the World Calling, 21 Jun 2008
`The Future us Unwritten' is Julian Temple's documentary film about the late great Joe strummer and is of `The Filth and the Fury' rather than `The Great Rock'N'Roll Swindle' template. The Soundtrack album also serves to tell the story of Joe mixing his own songs with the songs that inspired him and linking it all together with sound bites of Joe from various interviews and the links he made as a DJ for the BBC World Service with his occasional show `London Calling'.

Joe's own cannon is well represented here with The 101ers (Joe's first recording band) `Keys to your Heart' and early Clash with previously un-released demo versions of `White Riot' and `I'm So Bored with the USA'. The Clash's reggae influence is showcased with the single `Armagideon Time' and even the Clash Mark Two (usually buried by Strummer historians) are represented here with the unreleased (In the) Pouring Rain'. Joe's soundtrack work is highlighted with `Omotepe' from Walker and the brilliant `Trash City' recorded as The Latino Rockabilly War for Permanent Record. Joe's later work with the Mescalero's is represented with tracks from both the LP's released before Joe's untimely death.

Joe varied influences from Rock'N'Roll through Folk, Reggae to world music are shown here with Elvis Presley, Eddie Cochran, Tim Hardin, Woody Guthrie, Bob Dylan, Nina Simone, U-Roy, Andres Landeros and Ernest Ranglin. Surprise hit of the collection is an Arabic version of Clash classic `Rock the Casbah' recorded by Rachid Taha.

A great record telling a great story of a great musical icon. The future is unwritten, the past was recorded, the revolution will be televised.

5.0 out of 5 stars Strummer-shaped vacuum..., 26 Oct 2007
It would be hard to knock a compilation with MC5, Tim Hardin, Elvis Presley, U-Roy, Ernest Ranglin and Nina Simone on.
When in tribute to the late Joe Strummer and accompanying the excellent Julian Temple film, this soundtrack is irresitable.
With intriguing excerpts from Strummer's eclectic "World Service" show and tributes to the man as well as words from the man himself, this collates a wonderful soundtrack. A fitting tribute to a flawed giant.

Hard to not be moved by the man speaking so sincerely. Hard not to be touched by this segueing into the beautiful "Willesden To Cricklewood."

The searing MC5's "Kick Out The Jams" serves to demonstrate the seeds of punk. U-Roy's infectious "Natty Rebel" serves up the Jamaican influences.

The wonderful "Trash City" is a welcome reminder that the lost years served up some good stuff.

Go and buy it and keep listening to it. Some great tunes. Some interesting words and a fitting soundtrack to a great film about one of the most important figures in British music of the last 30 or so years.
Quality.
