"Limbo the Law" is on No. 10, Upping St., the second album by Big Audio Dynamite, the band Mick Jones built after his years as lead guitarist and co-lead vocalist in the Clash. The title of the album riffs on 10 Downing Street, and the real headline was the reunion: Joe Strummer came back alongside his old bandmate for this one record, co-producing it and co-writing 5 of its 9 songs.
This is one of them, written by Jones and Strummer with Dan Donovan, and the two old comrades produced it together. Paul Smykle engineered, with Dennis Mitchell, Alan Moulder, Mark "Spike" Stent and Cenzo Townshend assisting.
