Tuesday 25th January 1977 – Clash sign for CBS

Just a couple months after playing The Nag’s Head, The Clash sign a record deal with CBS for a reported £100,000.  Mark Perry, writing for his iconic fanzine ‘Sniffin Glue’, said at the time: “Punk died the day The Clash signed for CBS”.  Was he correct?  They certainly never played The Nag’s Head again.  The nearest they got to High Wycombe again were gigs at Aylesbury Friars.
