This set was released just after Joe Strummer's death, in 2002.

From Supply and Demand, pg. 266:
The Punk Pioneers series started with Joey Ramone, lead singer of the Ramones, who I considered the first punk band (even though Iggy Pop and the Stooges came before and were punk in their own respect, I felt like the Ramones really set the wheels in motion). After Joey Ramone came Johnny Rotten of the Sex Pistols, Joe Strummer from The Clash, Glen Danzig from the Misfits, and Ian MacKaye from Minor Threat. I felt like all those guys were individuals who helped blaze a trail in the punk rock scene. In punk rock’s family tree, those guys were the patriarchs of each branch.
