True, but it would be like Jame's going onstage in a burka nowadays.

dm18876...the reason the clash didn't play on totp is coz at that time anyway,totp didn't let the vast majority of bands play live which is something the clash were particular about

It was controversial because of the balaclava worn by James. In Britain, the wearing of balaclavas has long been associated with Irish paramilitary groups (the IRA in particular) who at the time of this performance, were still waging an armed campaign. I suppose that many of those who complained felt the military outfit with the balaclava resembled or showed support for paramilitary organisations, whereas it is quite well known that James was actually trying for the look of an SAS soldier.

@Squemby , yes agreed, but piss taking wankers, who introduced it. This is a fuckin classic, which should be appreciated, for the genius it is

@TorysApollo Balaclavas = IRA. (Although I don't think they stitched their names into the forehead)

Seems a bit tenuous but the BBC said it was the most complaints they had ever recieved. A guy named Simon Price said in his book 'Everything' that it was because it was shortly after the Warrington bomb, but that had been a year previous. Other things like the Greysteel massacre had happened since. I suppose Irish life is cheaper to some people

I think I love MSP! I never heard of TOTP, but I guess that where the total opposite of these guys go play. Does James play with balaclavas live often?
