Editorial Review:
Album Description:
Digitally remastered from the original production master tapes, this a reissue of the 1979 & third album by 'the only band that matters'. Features the original artwork and all 19 of the original tracks, including the hidden hit 'Train In Vain (Stand By Me)', their first U.S. single to chart (it reached #23 at the time). Also contains reproductions of the original LP sleeves, including the lyrics. 1999 release.
Amazon.com essential recording:
Bursting at the seams with creative energy, the Clash's stunning 1979 double album more than made up for the artistic and commercial disappointment of its predecessor, 1978's tried-too-hard Give 'Em Enough Rope. With ex-Mott the Hoople producer Guy Stevens harnessing their sound as never before, the band yielded what proved to be the best work of their career. Bouncing from hard rock (the apocalyptic vision of the title track) to rockabilly ("Brand New Cadillac") to reggae ("Rudy Can't Fail") to pop (the Top 40 hit "Train in Vain"), the Clash knocked down all musical walls and, in the process, ended the argument over punk's viability in the U.S. --Billy Altman

Buying this album was one of the best decisions I've ever made in my life. For the money, I've never had anything blow my mind quite like this album. It's obvious. Buy it now.

London Calling should be in any music lovers collection. I hesitate to call it classic because it is so fresh after 20+ years that is seems inappropriate to tag it that way. Much the way that Sgt Pepper or Nevermind feels unique and current no matter when you encounter it 1970, 1994 or 2008

The song "London Calling" touched a nerve at the start of the 1980s. Like the Young Ones, 2000AD, and the impact of new wave was being felt. The haze of the seventies was gone. A new dawn of nihilism was upon us (attack commercial greed - Koka Kola) people were scared and we were taught in schools of nuclear holocausts (London Calling) but the beauty and naivety still remains in songs such as "Train in Vain". As strong as The Stones Exile on Main St (the great double album of several years earlier) ... Read More

I was torn between 4 and 5 stars and would have done 4 1/2 if I knew how. I was probably a little bit harsher in my rating because of the record's reputation. It probably won't disappoint you, but I don't think it approaches the best album ever. It very likely has some great songs you've never heard, though, and some favorite ones familiar to you. It was ahead of its time with all the different styles melding together nicely, but there are some weak points in my opinion. But still better than 90% ... Read More

Not only is London Calling one of the best-written albums ever, it's one of the best-sounding albums as well. London Calling is an auditory delight, thanks in a large part due to Guy Stevens' impeccable production. The music is rich and mellifluous, with each song drifting through various genres and musical styles without ever becoming uneven or overwhelming. There are no weak tracks here, just great songs and greater songs. London Calling is a landmark rock album, and is essential for anyone who likes ... Read More
