- Rock Art and the X-Ray Style (Mercury 546 654-2) est le premier album de Joe Strummer and The Mescaleros. L'album est réalisé par le groupe avec sa première formation :
* Joe Strummer et à la guitaret et au chant,
* Martin Slattery au clavier et à la guitare,
* Smiley à la batterie,
* Pablo Cook aux autres instruments de percussion,
* et Scott Shields à la basse. Richard Flack fut aussi l'ingénieur du son sur cet album. Le disque marqua le come-back de Joe Strummer sur scène après une longue absence, son dernier enregistrement studio datant de 1989. L'album commence avec le brillant Tony Adams, une chanson qui ne sonne pas de la même façon que les précédents création de Joe Strummer avec les Clash. Les riffs de saxophone sont juxtaposés à une guitare aux sonorités reggae, tandis que Strummer récite des paroles décrivant une catastrophe qui frappa New York. Ceux qui s'attendent à retrouver le son de The Clash seront cependant extrêmement déçus. Le reste du disque est une expérience musicale, avec des chansons qui traduisent l'éclectisme de Joe Strummer. Sandpaper Blues contient des djembes et des chants africains, Techno D-Day surfe du côté des instruments électroniques, alors que Road to Rock and Roll, une autre chanson écrite par Joe Strummer pour Johnny Cash mélange guitare acoustique avec platine et batterie électronique. La chanson essentielle de l'album est Yalla Yalla, que Joe Strummer lui-même décrit comme « une ancienne chanson folk britannique...écrite dans l'année 1999. ». La chanson est riche en termes d'instruments, parmi lesquels clavier, synthés, basse, batterie et une guitare avec sustain infini (probablement obtenu à l'aide d'un e-bow). Bien qu'il n'atteint le niveau d'expérimentations que l'on pourrait trouver sur le disque Global a Go-Go de 2001, Rock Art and the X-Ray Style est intrinsèquement un album fort. (fr)
- Rock Art and the X-Ray Style is the debut album by Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros, released on October 18, 1999. This album featured the band in its first incarnation: Joe Strummer and Antony Genn on guitar and vocals, Martin Slattery playing keyboards and guitar, Steve "Smiley" Barnard on drums, Pablo Cook on other percussion instruments, and Scott Shields on bass. Richard Flack also did engineering on the album. The record marked Strummer's re-emergence from a long absence in the music scene, his last record being 1989's Earthquake Weather, a decade earlier. The album begins with "Tony Adams," a track which sounds not unlike Strummer's previous work with The Clash. Saxophone riffs are juxtaposed with reggae inspired guitar, as Strummer recites lyrics detailing a catastrophe hitting New York City. The rest of the record takes a winding journey, with songs that capture Strummer's genre mixing. "Sandpaper Blues" features hand drums and African chanting, "Techno D-Day" dabbles in electronic instruments, while "Road to Rock and Roll," another song written by Strummer for Johnny Cash combines acoustic guitar with turntables and electronic drums. "Yalla Yalla" Strummer himself once described as "an ancient British folk song....written in the year 1999." The song is rich in layers, which includes keyboards, synths, bass, drums, and a guitar with endless sustain (likely provided via an e-bow). The song "Tony Adams" was named after the football player of the same name. "Yalla Yalla" and "Tony Adams" were both released as singles with music videos shot for each. The video for "Tony Adams" features Strummer walking down the street of New York City carrying a ghetto blaster. Rancid's Lars Fredriksen makes a brief appearance in the video. A remastered version of the album along with Strummer's other two Hellcat released albums was released as a special 57 song digital download titled Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros: The Hellcat Years on 21 August 2012 to celebrate what would have been Strummer's 60th birthday. Hellcat will also release each remastered album individually on CD and vinyl on 25 September 2012. To promote the album, Strummer embarked on his first tour in ten years which included his first North American tour since 1989. (en)
