Following the dismantling of the legendary Clash, lead singer Mick Jones formed a band that was designed to push the musical boundaries of the Punk sound by incorporating elements of Funk, Reggae and Hip Hop. The results were a little uneven, and despite some innovative and successful material, Big Audio Dynamite likely never hit the levels (though they were successful) that they should have. With the Clash already inducted, a second induction for Mick Jones doesn’t seem like it is in the works anytime soon.
