Project Detail

Keith Levene's London 1976!

Synopsis

At age 17 the legendary British guitarist Keith Levene was a founder member of the Clash. He recruited Joe Strummer, wrote one of the band's early hits, played at all their early live shows including one in which he posited the idea to his future collaborator John Lydon to start PiL, then agreed to leave the Clash before his 18th birthday. Set against the emerging first wave of British punk in West London, this is Keith's story.
