Great album, listing most but not all of the famous and landmark tracks from all 4 Albums to date. I had this 20 years ago, and re-bought it because I liked the conciseness of it, even though I have all the Albums and EP's anyway. If you want a cronology of the Clash's work's then forget The Essential Clash, this is the one. Hidden interview on disc 2 that sounds like they're on a tube train. Would have liked to see "Stop the world" included, an underestemated track, but you can never have to much Clash in your collection. When Topper was sacked, the Clash didn't exist any longer, so this album is a transcript of the clash till that event.
This album is an essential for the car stereo. It contains most of their best known tracks so it is ideal for that purpose. It's not a complete collection though so some of your favourite album tracks might not be there. It's also very good in that the tracks are not listed in date order so you can be listening to a song from the first album followed immediately by something from Combat Rock. It's great to hear how the band developed musically in one collection. It's a collection of most, (but not all) the best songs from the best band ever. Pretty much perfect really.
This is the best cd to get a general all round feeling for the Clash. It covers all their more well known hits for those of you just discovering this amazing cult band and some other not so well known to get a feel for the rest of their material. Brilliant legendary group!
