2/6 Stuart Maconie profiles six undisputed heavies of pop and rock - the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Beach Boys, Bob Dylan, Elton John and the Clash. The series traces their careers through the original reviews and features by some of the undisputed heavies of music journalism - Charles Shaar Murray, Paul Morley,
Barney Hoskyns and Jill Furmanovsky.
Regarded as the ultimate perpetrators of the 70s punk ethos, the Clash attacked the airwaves with a determined and sweat-drenched output of politicised anger and intensity.
