                         THIRD WORLD WAR - album of the same name

An original UK 1st issue on 1971 Fly label FLY 4 (not the 1979 reissue)... Terry Stamp , Jim Avery & the band supported by Bobby Keyes, Jim Price, Tony Ashton amongst others. Often labelled a proto-punk band belting out radical leftist lyrics (they sounded like a prototype version of The Clash), this album was considered to be quite a few years ahead of its time. Joe Strummer has claimed that Third World War "were doing it when everything else was dead."  They have also received praise from several notable figures, including Henry Rollins and Steve Albini. Listen on YouTube to a few of the tracks and read the comments too.
