The Clash: Museum Calling

The 40th anniversary of The Clash‘s London Calling will be celebrated with a new exhibit at the Museum of London.

The Clash: London Calling includes over 100 items from the band’s archives, include Joe Strummer‘s notebook of lyrics from that year, the bass guitar Paul Simonon smashed on the album cover, a handwritten album sequence note by Mick Jones, Strummer’s typewriter and Topper Headon’s drum sticks. Many of these items are also featured in the London Calling Scrapbook, a 120-page hardback companion which comes with the album on CD.

The exhibit and the scrapbook both launch on November 15th.
