The Clash's performance at the Rainbow Room in 1977 has been voted the Best London Gig Ever by Time Out.

The Finsbury Park gig, which also included The Jam, Buzzcocks, Subway Sect and The Prefects as support, came top of the 100 strong list compiled by "journalists and contributors".

The 'middle aged journos reminiscing about their youth' factor may have contributed to the Clash wining, but second place went to a much more recent gig: Brian Wilson's RFH gig last year.

In at third was another 70s Rainbow theatre gig, this time Stevie Wonder in 1974.
