What is your favourite Clash song ?

 

For me it would be Armagideon time.Great simple bass line.

[melthebell 862]

guns of brixton

[Tarquin 10]

guns of brixton

 

 

Yep that comes a close second in my book & I never get to tire of listening to London Calling espcially that opening bass line hook

[whitehorses 10]

I like most of them, but for dancing to..It has to be 'Rock the casbah'.Mind you , this was a little bit mainstream for my usual tastes!

Soz, posted twice!

[melthebell 862]

but as i get older i start to like the more mellow songs that i didnt really like as a young punk

 

the blaggers ITA version of guns of brixton is just immense...i have it on a promo 12"

Train in Vain for me

[StarSparkle 10]

So many to choose from... such a hard choice...

 

I can't decide between "Stay Free", "White Man in Hammersmith Palais", "Complete Control" and "Capital Radio" - with "Radio Clash" and "Know your Rights" right behind

PS Add "Gates of the West" and "Pressure Drop"

I can never answer these!

 

I'll go with the following.

 

"Gates of the West", "Whiteman in Hammersmith Palais", "Armagideon Time", "Something about England"

 

Sorry I can't choose one!

[Longcol 592]

"Spanish Bombs", "Working for the Clampdown", "White Man In Hammersmith Palais", "Jimmy Jazz", "The Right Profile","Rudy Can't Fail"..........and umpteen more.................

 

Mind you I think "Lovers Rock" and "Four Horsemen" on the "London Calling" album are some of the most embarrasing waste of vinyl since prog rock "concept albums".

Complete Control
