A selection of rare Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros tracks have been released - and you can listen to them below.
Strummer started working with the backing band he called The Mescaleros in the mid-to-late 1990s. The band' first album Rock Art And The X-Ray Style was released in 1999.
Their second studio album Global a Go-Go followed in 2001. A third album was released posthumously in 2003, after Strummer's death in 2002.
Kings Of Leon were joined by Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder on stage in San Francisco last night (October 3).

Shortly after the gig, bassist Jared Followill tweeted:
Great show in San Fran with Pearl Jam. Eddie came up and sang The Bucket with us. Always an honor to share the stage with them. #Heroes
