''Capital Radio'' is a song and an extended play by the English punk rock band The Clash. The original 2:07-2:09 song has been included as "Capital Radio" or "Capital Radio One" on the ''Capital Radio'' EP (1977), ''Black Market Clash'' (1980), ''The Story of the Clash, Volume 1'' (1988), ''Clash on Broadway'' (1991), ''From Here to Eternity: Live'' (1999), ''The Essential Clash'' (2003), and ''Singles Box'' (2006). Lyrically, the song is an attack on the music policy of what was (at the time) London's only legal commercial music radio station, which played mainstream chart hits and little if any punk. It mentions the station's then-Head of Music, Aidan Day - "He picks all the hits they play/to keep you in your place all day". The song ends with a parody of one of Capital's actual jingles of the period; the band replaces the lyric "in tune with London" with "in tune with nothing". The parody is heightened by the use of a variation on the ending riff from 'I'm only dreaming' by the Small Faces. Stiff Little Fingers use a modified version of the chorus as the outro to their song "You Can't Say Crap on the Radio". ==''Capital Radio'' E.P.== The extended play ''Capital Radio'' was released on 9 April 1977,〔George Gimarc, ''Punk Diary'', p. 61.〕 and was given away to readers who sent off the coupon printed in the NME, plus the red sticker found on the band's debut studio album ''The Clash'' (1977). It was produced by Mickey Foote and engineered by Simon Humphrey. The interview was with the NME's Tony Parsons. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Capital Radio One」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
