The Latino Rockabilly War
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Latino Rockabilly War was a backing band most notably for one-time The Clash frontman Joe Strummer. With Strummer, The Latino Rockabilly War created one record, Earthquake Weather, through Epic Records. The album, though not badly reviewed, did not sell well and the band, Joe Strummer included, lost their deal with Epic (excepting an instance in which Joe Strummer decided to reform or re-create The Clash with the same or new musicians, in which case he would have been forced to work with Epic).
Band Members included:
Zander Schloss: Guitar
Lonnie Marshall: Bass
Willie MacNeil: Drums
Jack Irons: Drums
The band toured with Strummer on the Rock Against The Rich Tour in 1988. Their sets included songs spanning Strummer's career to that point, including works from The 101'ers and The Clash, as well as a cover of The Pogues' famous "If I Should Fall From The Grace of God."
