The final album by The Clash's original Strummer/Jones incarnation, originally released in 1982. It includes two massive hits: 'Should I Stay or Should I Go?' has the biggest, stupidest, most perfect riff this side of 'Louie Louie', and 'Rock the Casbah' pulls the band's politics, fine-honed sarcasm, and saw-toothed guitar sound into the service of a dance-floor beat. Strummer's lyrics also deepened on this record - Allen Ginsberg turns up on 'Ghetto Defendant' and it's clear on some of the other tracks ('Car Jamming', 'Straight to Hell') that he was an influence on Strummer's songwwriting.
Track Listing:
1. Know Your Rights - The Clash (3.41)
2. Car Jamming - The Clash (4)
3. Should I Stay Or Should I Go - The Clash (3.09)
4. Rock the Casbah - The Clash (3.43)
5. Red Angel Dragnet - The Clash (3.45)
6. Straight to Hell - The Clash (5.32)
7. Overpowered By Funk - The Clash (4.53)
