I think the line is "Clash" and "The Selecter". The Clash is obviously a well known 70's-80's British punk rock bank, and a quick Wikipedia search tells me that The Selecter is a British ska band from the same time period.
So basically what this song says to me is that Dicky is reminiscing on old times and talking about how things have changed with him over time... However despite all, his roots remain the same. He's tipping his hat to his influences and saying that they haven't been forgotten. Not by a long shot. He's still got their records and he keeps them in good condition.
