The sound of a Saints song at the start of the show not only give us some useful alliteration but also clears the pores, sinuses and ears in readiness for the rest. Due recognition is also given to 'Remote Control' by The Clash, which was a perfectly good song on side one of their first LP, minding its own business, when it was plucked from obscurity by someone at the record company, CBS to be the band's new single in May 1977. What followed was punk rock legend. The Clash had wanted 'Janie Jones' to be the second single from the LP, and when they didn't get their way they wrote 'Complete Control'. Huff as an inspiration for art is an area still to be fully explored. The resulting single was not only better than both 'Janie Jones' and 'Remote Control' but is the first in their trilogy of singles which have never been bettered by friend, foe, fish or fowl.
