Jesse Luscious was on the air in 2002 when the news of Strummer’s death became known, and immediately began what’s now an annual celebration of his music, from the 101ers to The Clash to the Latino Rockabilly War to the Mescaleros, with some surprising stops along the way (Janie Jones & the Lash, Ellen Foley, & The Pogues, to name just a few).
This year, the Strummer show hits the airwaves Christmas morning, 6AM-noon!
