Joe Strummer 003: The 101'ers Years 3CD Box Set

Pre-order Date: October 8th, 2026 Release Date: November 20th, 2026 Dark Horse Records is proud to release Joe Strummer 003: The 101'ers Years, bringing together studio and live recordings from Joe Strummer’s pre-Clash band, The 101'ers. The 3CD deluxe edition features 48 tracks and is housed in a 48-page hardback book with slipcase. The book includes a foreword by Sex Pistols bassist Glen Matlock, a history of The 101'ers written by band member Richard Nother Dudanski, and illustrations & writings by Joe Strummer rom the Strummer archive. Disc 1 collects the band’s studio recordings, Disc 2 features basement tapes and demos, and Disc 3 is dedicated to live recordings. The 101'ers took their name from 101 Walterton Road in Maida Vale, where the band lived together in a squat, and became regulars on London’s mid-’70s pub rock scene. Their sound mixed rock &roll, R&B and rockabilly, just as punk was beginning to emerge. After the Sex Pistols opened for the band in 1976, Strummer was drawn to the new punk movement and soon left to join The Clash. The 101'ers brief run captures an important moment just before British punk changed everything.
