LONDON CALLING - DOUBLE LP SET - Bursting at the seams with creative energy, the Clash's stunning 1979 double album more than made up for the artistic and commercial disappointment of its predecessor, 1978's tried-too-hard Give 'Em Enough Rope. With ex-Mott the Hoople producer Guy Stevens harnessing their sound as never before, the band yielded what proved to be the best work of their career. Bouncing from hard rock (the apocalyptic vision of the title track) to rockabilly ("Brand New Cadillac") to reggae ("Rudy Can't Fail") to pop (the Top 40 hit "Train in Vain"), the Clash knocked down all musical walls and, in the process, ended the argument over punk's viability in the U.S.

GIVE EM SOME ROPE - Despite the tepid production by metal guru Sandy Pearlman, the Clash's sophomore album, Give 'Em Enough Rope, manages to burn with white-hot intensity.  Rope finds the boys flexing their songwriting muscles. The first three songs ("Safe European Home," "English Civil War," and "Tommy Gun") stand among their most powerful and leap from the record with brute force. Though they hit a few clunkers ("Cheapskates"), this album is a near classic and gives a hint of the band to come that would light up the world with LONDON CALLING

All the Young Punks (New Boots and Contracts   LIVE AT SHEA STADIUM - "Live At Shea Stadium has its flaws: Devotees will rightly quibble with the set list, which is light on rarities and cuts from the Clash's brilliant debut. But the album captures a rousing, crystalline-sounding Clash show, featuring some classics like 'Tommy Gun' and 'Spanish Bombs.' A handful of great cuts illustrate what made the Clash so exciting: On 'Career Opportunities,' Strummer wittily rails against corporate hegemony, and when the Clash segue from the protopunk-funk 'Magnificent Seven' to the reggae jam 'Armagideon Time,' they prove they've got big ears and bigger ambitions. The playing is tight, if not as ferocious as when Headon manned the drum kit." – Rolling Stone

Combat Rock was the Clash's biggest album. The amount of discs it sold made them one of the most popular bands of the early 80's. It also was the beginning of their downfall.
Egos got into the way of conquering the music world. According to Joe Strummer, Mick Jones was becoming difficult to work with. He wanted people to go through his lawyer. Strummer and Simonon (the band's bassist) felt that Jones had strayed away from the band's ideals.

The music on combat rock is a mixture of pop, punk, dance and synth-pop. Strummer tried to keep the music political and revelant whilst Jones wanted to add more beat and hip-hop. Allen Ginsburg (beat poet) appears on Ghetto Deffendant. The tracks range from a Nuclear Holocaust to
a song about Errol Flynn's son. Their most pop friendly album to date (even more so than London Calling).

A punk milestone. Some may prefer the U.K. version of this album, but this is the one I grew up with. So much has been written about the Clash, what more is there to say? They were the most important band of the U.K. punk scene. They had a different sound than most of their contemporaries. They played punk with a reggae influence. That influence is most clearly heard here on "Police & Thieves". This album has one great song after another. Buy this version just buy it.

 CLASH HITS BACK EXCLUSIVELY REMEASTERED 180 GRAM Three LP anthology sequenced by surviving Clash members Simonon, Jones and Headon 

Tracks reflect the band's tour show at Brixton's Fairdeal in July 1982

This rather finely focused collection includes the essentials — "London Calling," "White Man in Hammersmith Palais," "Guns of Brixton," "Bankrobber," "White Riot" and so on — with their covers ("Brand New Cadillac," "Police and Thieves," "Armagideon Time," "I Fought the Law" and others) plus decent album tracks.

Every home should have the London Calling album but this one is a one-stop shop for the curious (with a career synopsis by Pat Gilbert)
