Born in Crockenhill, north of Kent, Headon started playing drums and an early age. He lists jazz drummer Billy Cobham as an influence. In 1973, he played in a progressive rock group called Mirkwood for a year and a half.
In 1977, he joined the Clash and remained part of the group through the tour to support Combat Rock. After the Clash, he worked on a solo career for the later part of the 80's.
Here is a list of the Clash albums I have reviewed to date:
- for the band's 1977 self-titled debut album the Clash, click here. Headon joined the band after their debut though.
- for the band's 1978 album Give 'Em Enough Rope, click here
- for the band's 1979 double-length third album London Calling, click here
- for the band's fifth album from 1982, the aforementioned Combat Rock, click here
