Here is the rarely heard extended 1980 version of Call Me. The god damn guitar/drum/synth solos between the vocals as so fucking good. At 9:27 long it's a shame this version is so unknown and we are only exposed to the radio version and the still shorter cassette version https://youtu.be/b_4k_pHrXm0

This concert was aired on an old BBC show called The Old Grey Whistle Test. It cuts off half way through Sunday Girl. Although the video still ends early, there's a full audio version here with upscaled quality

Caught them multiple times in my youth at NYC clubs, CBGBs, Bottom Line, etc. They were never not good, clubs always packed when they played.

Clem Burke is a savage drummer. One of the best of all time.

Clem Burke actually received an honorary doctorate from a UK university for participating in a study related to the physiological demands of drumming during live performances.

Clem Burke is the most under-appreciated drummer in rock. I've been saying this since 1979.

I remember a quote from Joey Ramone along the lines of, if it wasn't for Debbie Harry being there everyone would have been watching Clem Burke
