Unfortunately, you can't get much of an education on the Clash from the few songs that get air play. I'd give London Calling a listen before I dismissed them completely. Or if you like somewhat heavier stuff, their first album.
I'll check those out, maybe I can discover why people are nuts about them.
Start here. And turn it way up.

If you are interested in some pretty good interviews along with great live footage, Westway to the World is available on youtube.

Caught the last 5 songs of Iron & Wine's show through a gap in the gate downtown. Pretty great and free.

I've been looking online for the live version of Naked as We Came they did for an encore. It was absolutely beautiful. They sang some vocal ambiance after the chorus. Can't find it anywhere.
