Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
The Clash's label didn't believe this debut would sell in the United States. By the time CBS got around to releasing a stateside version of the U.K. album, the British original had become an import hit. While the U.S. release contains outstanding tracks such as "Complete Control" and "Clash City Rockers," it's still missing "Cheat," "Protex Blue," "48 Hours," and "Deny." No matter which version you prefer, The Clash is a fearsome listen. Joe Strummer reviles the system at every turn, while Mick Jones wields his guitar like a switchblade. Yet even on their debut there are hints of future musical adventures. Junior Murvin's "Police & Thieves" is solid reggae, while "White Man in Hammersmith Palais" expertly interpolates the reggae groove into their punk attack. --Rob O'Connor

There are very, very few albums from the whole 50 years of the rock era on this level, and none--none--that surpass it. Highway 61, Are You Experienced, Shoot Out the Lights, Reasonable Doubt--that's what we're talking about.
In particular, The Clash--original English version ONLY--offers a degree and power of aesthetic unity matched only, if at all, by records like those above. Its songs all leap straight from the streets of '70s London; they embody a furious, total commitment to the ... Read More

The reviewers here seem to agree that the American version of this album, with four of the original songs dropped and five others added, is the preferable one. And certainly, "Clash City Rockers" and "White Man (in Hammersmith Palais)" are essential Clash numbers. Still, the original album has a certain integrity if only because it really was the original album--the band's point of contact with its public. Ideally, one might get both, but if I had to choose, I'd rather hear what the first album was ... Read More

England 1977. There were only two bands who could capture the frustration of the youth of the United Kingdom in 1977. The Sex Pistols and The Clash. The Sex Pistols philosophy was Destroy everything in your path. The Clash's was rebuild everything the Sex Pistols destroyed and make it better for everyone.
I originally purchased the US version of this album, which is still good, but nothing compares to the UK version. If you wanna hear what people heard in England in 1977 this is what you ... Read More

Picture yourself in 1977 wandering through your local Record Factory, Peaches, Bananas Music, Wherehouse, Tower Records, etc. (all, by the way, now defunct).You venture deep into the import section, past the massive displays of Fleetwood Mac, Peter Frampton, Hall & Oates, the Eagles, the Bee Gees, et al, and you hold in your hand the import copy of the Clash. You were drawn to it because you read about them in Melody Maker or Trouser Press, and you thought, OK, I'll give it a try. You take it home, ... Read More

The Clash were among the topmost important punk groups, having the power and the passion in spades, and a sincerely egalitarian ethos in the lyrics of Joe Strummer, who perhaps even more than John Lydon embodied the spirit of 1977. Their first album snarled into the shops in April 1977 in the UK and Canada, but was not available in America for over two years except on import, and was then released in a revised format, five tracks being replaced by various singles.
Called simply The Clash, the ... Read More
