   "Bands like the Sex Pistols gave us this amazing, raw punk music, but the Clash had a much more sophisticated and legitimate message in terms of their analysis of politics and the horrible economic reality of London at the time," said John Quigley, general manager of the University of Colorado radio station KVCU-1190 AM. "They were not so much snotty kids sticking their middle finger at the establishment. They weren't pretentious and they didn't badger or pontificate. And they managed to package it in a way that was fun music."

   "For me, the coolest thing about the Clash was how they incorporated reggae and dub into punk rock before sampling was ever invented," Quigley said of a category that could also include, soul, R&B, funk and hip-hop. (Dub is a process of stripping songs of their vocals and manipulating the sound of the instruments through loops and processors to achieve a distorted, psychedelic effect).
   
   "They were originally a straight- ahead punk band, but then they started hanging out with the disaffected Jamaicans in London. They had an affinity for one another because they were both doing rebellious political music, albeit in totally different musical styles. They were both coming from a place of poverty and rebelling against the British political, class and economic system of the mid-1970s. There was a lot of disparity between haves and have-nots, and punk rock sprouted out of the poor white kids' response to that poverty."
