The Mescaleros duly delivered "Rock Art & The X-Ray Style" (1999) & "Global A Go-Go" (2001). The Mescaleros may have changed from tour to tour, but the songs remained the same (Joe even found work for his old busking pal and fiddle-player Tymon Dogg, for the first time since Sandinista). The music was a glorious amalgamation of every aspect of Joe's character: as wide as his vision & as big as his heart. I caught shows on each tour, to see Joe again after so long was just as exhilarating as it had been the first time round. The last time I saw him I'd decided that he was gonna live forever & turn into a gnarled punk/blues/world amalgamation of Bo Diddly, Woody Guthrie & Muddy Waters – a man for all seasons & all generations. A foot soldier of the old guard destined to continue teaching lesser minds the beauty & power of legitimate protest through an art-form: "Let fury have the hour, anger can be power, you know that we can use it".
