• 60 Years of Mick Jones: His Biggest Hits Outside of The Clash

    Today marks the 60th birthday of Mick Jones, the iconic guitarist for The Clash, one of the most influential punk bands of all time. You know the songs: "White Riot," "I Fought The Law," "London's Burning," and more. The thing is...the guitarist has been fairly detached from the band that made him famous for more than 30 years and it's unlikely that he'll be celebrating his sixth decade of existence by jamming on The Clash. Therefore Music Times went through the rest of his music catalogue to find singles that he created with acts aside from his signature band.

  • 5 Musicians With Two Equally Famous Bands: Dave Grohl, Eric Clapton, And More

    Plenty of musicians join more than one band throughout their careers, but most of them end up being associated with just one band. That's why Paul McCartney is always referred to as a member of the Beatles, and not a member of Wings.
