When:

Short story:

The Clash play at The Top Rank, Sheffield, South Yorkshire, UK.

Full article:

Joe Elliot (Def Leppard) : I remember seeing The Clash at Sheffield Top Rank in 1977 and thinking ... Wow! ... compared to what was usually on at the Top Rank they couldn’t really play (in the sense of what was the norm back then) but the excitement that came off the stage was phenomenal!

I went in a totally different direction music wise, but nevertheless, The Clash left a lasting impression on me to the point that every time I'm on tour I end up buying The Clash and London Calling over and over again because I left them at home!
