Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros playing Bankrobber, live in Cologne, Germany (1999). This is the last song of the show, and it's a hoot. Notice how Strummer starts wildly improvising all the lyrics once he gets off the stage.
Anyway, this whole show kicked ass. Nice video quality, great audio, all around terrific stuff.
The setlist is as follows: -Straight to Hell, -Tony Adams, -London Calling, -X Ray Style, -Rock the Casbah, -White Man in Hammersmith Palais, -Yalla Yalla, -Brand New Cadillac, -I Fought the Law, -Tommy Gun, -Bankrobber.

Documentary on Czech filmmaker Karel Zeman's incredible special effects.
Karel Zeman (November 3, 1910, Ostroměř near Nová Paka, then Austria-Hungary - April 5, 1989, Prague, then Czechoslovakia) was a Czech animator and filmmaker. He is considered the co-founder of the Czech animated film. He started to be interested in puppet theatre while studying at business school. Soon after, he decided to study at the Art School of Advertising in France, and after graduating he took a job with an advertising studio in Marseilles. His first experience with animated film was making an ad for soup. When he returned home he continued working in advertising, now for big Czech firms Bata and Tatra. Zeman showed a sample of his work to the filmmaker Elmar Klos, and was offered a job at the animation studio in Zlín. He accepted the job in 1943. Once there, he met animator Hermína Týrlová, who had just finished animating the all-time children's favorite Ferda Mravenec (Ferda the Ant, based on a story by Ondřej Sekora). Together, Zeman and Týrlova made the animated film Vánoční sen (Christmas Dream) and won the award for Best Animation at the 1946 festival in Cannes. Zeman was well on his way to becoming a world-renowned animator.

The creative inspiration for this unique animation series came from Olga Pouchine in the 1950s. She originally created the character of Colargol for bedtime stories that she told to her son. Agnès Moreau reveals some of the lesser known details behind the aspiring bear singer's career in her book, "De Nounours à Casimir", Editions Charles Massin (1997
Jeremy the bear lives with his parents in Greenwood Forest, while the French Colargol lives in la forêt de Bois Joli (Pretty Wood Forest), and in Norway, Eventyrskogen (Fairytale Forest). The stories are instantly identifiable, touching on universal themes seen in other great children's stories. Jeremy's adventures take him far from home, but happily for him, he always manages to return. The nature of the short 15 minute cliff-hanging episodes gave the impression that he was very lost and never found his way back home, but don't underestimate this little bear; in total, he does find his way back to Greenwood Forest at least 5 times; in episode 7, 13, 21, 40, and 51.

The creative inspiration for this unique animation series came from Olga Pouchine in the 1950s. She originally created the character of Colargol for bedtime stories that she told to her son. Agnès Moreau reveals some of the lesser known details behind the aspiring bear singer's career in her book, "De Nounours à Casimir", Editions Charles Massin (1997
Jeremy the bear lives with his parents in Greenwood Forest, while the French Colargol lives in la forêt de Bois Joli (Pretty Wood Forest), and in Norway, Eventyrskogen (Fairytale Forest). The stories are instantly identifiable, touching on universal themes seen in other great children's stories. Jeremy's adventures take him far from home, but happily for him, he always manages to return. The nature of the short 15 minute cliff-hanging episodes gave the impression that he was very lost and never found his way back home, but don't underestimate this little bear; in total, he does find his way back to Greenwood Forest at least 5 times; in episode 7, 13, 21, 40, and 51.
In his very first episode, he arrives late for school and does poorly at arithmetic. Instead of studying math, he longs to follow his heart and sing, even if he does so badly. Sent home from school, a sad musical motif begins to play, one which is repeated throughout the series whenever Jeremy is feeling blue. But as long as Jeremy remembers his own theme song, he can do just about anything. He goes on to become the first bear to meet the King of Birds; he was an instant star performer at the Circus; he even travels to the moon and back!
By now you might be wondering where this little bear has disappeared to, and why hasn't he been released on DVD somewhere? The fact is, he has been, but only in Polish. In fact, Colargol has been commonly found in Poland on PAL VHS tapes for some time now, and at least 3 Polish PAL DVDs have been released with perhaps more on the way.
Why then is Colargol available in Polish? Because SEMAFOR was a state run organization, and it collapsed in 1999. All work produced by SEMAFOR between 1947 and 1999 now lies with the Polish National Filmotheque. But as for a release in English, French, or Norwegian, there are legal difficulties.
