London Calling

Product Information

Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections - they may also appear in recommendations and other places. This live recording captures them in full flight at the legendary Bataclan in Paris, and the wild creative vision of Robert Wyatt's merry pranksters splays out from the ominous drum intro onwards, through towering crescendos of musicality that touch on noticeable album moments such as the 'Esther's Nose Job' suite from Volume Two to 'Moon In June', which would be released one year later on Third. Sony UK would not let the original stampers out for that last one Tim Young cut, even though they don’t have a pressing plant anymore.

The album and its cover, designed by Ray Lowry with a photograph by Pennie Smith, is represented in MoMA’s collection. It was originally released as a double album in the United Kingdom on 14 December 1979 by CBS Records, and in the United States in January 1980 by Epic Records. The vinyl format enhances the raw, powerful spirit and intricate musical tapestry woven by The Clash. It's been awhile since I've played my copy of the EU Tim Young cut, but I don't remember anything negative about it, and I've been listening to this album a long time. Language - Regardless of country of origin all tracks are sung in English, unless otherwise stated in our description.

The vinyl format contributes a depth, warmth, and clarity that amplifies each rousing anthem and potent musing, casting them in a rich, immersive auditory experience that captures the essence of The Clash's carnivorous musical appetite.
