CLASH, THE - London Calling [2015] 180g, Import 2LP. NEW

Released: August 21, 2015 (orig release Dec 14, 1979)

UK import, double LP. Sealed & new. 

If punk rejected pop history, London Calling reclaimed it, albeit with a knowing perspective. The scope of this double set is breathtaking, encompassing reggae, rockabilly and the group's own furious mettle. Where such a combination might have proved over-ambitious, the Clash accomplish it with swaggering panache. Guy Stevens, who produced the group's first demos, returns to the helm to provide a confident, cohesive sound equal to the set's brilliant array of material. Boldly assertive and superbly focused, London Calling contains many of the quartet's finest songs and is, by extension, virtually faultless.
