THESE ARE YOUR RIGHTS!!!
Blaring out of my Sanyo tape deck in my '76 monte Carlo from my Jensen triax 6x9s!
I made sure everyone in Monroe got to enjoy that tape.

Awesome album. Side One is almost flawless: Know Your Rights, Car Jamming, Should I Stay..., Rock the Casbah, Red Angel Dragnet (sort of), Straight to Hell.

The run of London Calling, Sandinista!, and Combat Rock was an amazing run of music. Back-to-back-to-back incredible albums. They left their pure punk phase and went hard experimenting with different things. Some of it worked, some of it didn't, but they definitely paved the way for many genre-bending bands following them.
Then Topper got kicked out for heroin and it went downhill. Seeing interviews with him, you feel for him. He knows he fricked up and caused the downfall of the band.
Strummer will always be a legend to me. When I discovered The Clash at age 14, it opened my eyes to so many other types of music.

Combat Rock is a fine album, but “Rock the Casbah” ls sort of a novelty tune.

2nd CD I ever bought. I still have it.

Agree...I purchased all immediately upon release...all were in heavy rotation. Having said that, London Calling is almost a perfect (double) album...the energy, the music, the lyrics.... just incredible. And the photo that your emoji is from is one of the all-time iconic rock photos.

“Should I stay or should I go” is punk cool. My wife wants it for a ringtone.
