If Adolf Hitler flew in today
They’d send a limousine anyway ……

Magnificent 7.

Sits back with a smile ….

Has the makings of a good thread this ……

It changes regularly but I often come back to this one:

+1 on London Calling

Safe European Home or Stay Free, depending on my mood

can’t believe its 8yrs.

Always on in the Club juke box at the Edinburgh College of Art in the early eighties.

Complete Control

In this order.
1) Stay Free
2) Stay Free
3) Stay Free

There are so many classics my choice changes constantly (IMHO they are the best band ever!) but if I had to vote today it is Train in Vain

All of them. Except side 2 of Sandinista.

Basspine,always found side 2 of sandinista sounded better after a couple of jazz woodbines?

Train in vain, or (ducks) lost in the supermarket. Then again, I fought the law always does it for me. Thought they lost their way with most of sandinista though.

Thats got to be the toughest question ever asked on a forum.. Screw what tyres for abseiling or some otther sh1t..

London Calling? Jimmy Jazz? Revolution Rock? **** why not the whole of London Calling.. Or what about Armagideon Time or Straight to Hell?

But Im going for this ‘cos it just plain rocks..

Interrupting all programs..

(from when I was about 15)
you know, I think he’s right
– or hateful, maybe

Maybe not the most popular choice but

Guns of Brixton.

Way too hard a question.

“Stay Free” and “Train in Vain” are such beautifully crafted songs.

But “London Calling” and “Guns of Brixton” are just so powerful.

If I had to choose just one, it would probably be Stay Free.

1, just one?

guns of brixton
guns on the roof

Spanish Bombs

Brand New Cadillac
Know Your Rights
English Civil War
London Calling
Guns of Brixton

Bank Robber

so many good ones, I couldn’t pick a single one.

[*]London Calling b/w Armagideon Time: Christmas morning 1980 (’81?) sat on my bedroom floor playing one side then the other over and over on my Dansette style music system. Awesome!

+ Tommy Gun
Train in Vain
Complete Control
English Civil War
And

A dead heat between Complete Control & Hammersmith Palais

English civil War

1. london calling
2. white riot
3. police and thieves

+1 Complete Control

My fav 3.
This is England – not strictly The Clash I know and I think I’ll prob be alone in liking this but I **** love it)
Bankrobber – used to listen to it all day as a kid on one of those old drop down record players that you could switch to repeat.
Dub be good to me – prefer it to guns of Brixton

impossible- can’t be done: too too many to pic one. All of the above have put my tiny mind into overload. Not even gonna try , it just cannae be done!!!

I’ve no idea why this was my favourite, nobody else ever suggests it so I guess it didn’t strike a cord for many others (note: not had ^ a mention , as per usual), but I played it (and the album) constantly as a teenager. I don’t think there is one duff track on that album.
