The first one was Love Will Tear us Apart by Paul Young.
Not sure of the second one though..............
Great playing BTW.

Indeed it is a Clash tune. Paul Simonon was in the hospital when it was recorded, so Norman Watt-Roy filled in.

Problem I have is that I haven't played that album for more than 20 years, and also it is just that, a vinyl album, so digging it out and setting up the turntable to play it is a bit of a chore.
