Hooligan, do you have From Here to Eternity? 'Cause the version of "White Man in Hammersmith Palais" on that is fucking awesome.

Yeah I do, truth is that between my wife and I, we have just about everything except some of the more recent compilations. How is "The Singles"?
Inlander:
No idea - my collection's not nearly as comprehensive as yours! I've got The Clash, London Calling, Sandanista, Combat Rock, and From Here to Eternity.
hooligan:
Run out and buy "Give 'Em Enough Rope" right now! Oh hell, that not reliable enough, send me your address and I will buy it for you and have it shipped to you. This is of the utmost urgency!
Relax, settle down, it’s not his fault, OK, sorry I'm back.
All their albums are great; I can't imagine not owning any of them. If I was made to choose between Black Market Clash and Give 'Em Enough Rope, well I would probably throw myself into the mud and cry in a stupor of indecision.
If, god forbid, you were thinking of only ever buying one more Clash album, then I may have to recommend… ghah, I just can’t do it!
As a side note, I have often joked that if “White Man in Hammersmith Palais” was on London Calling instead of “Train in Vain”, then the whole music industry would have ended. All parties involved would have agreed that it was futile to continue putting out music when it was clearly impossible to match that Album.
blindsuperhero:
Train in Vain is an alright song. It's quite a skill to write good pop-style songs, and this is one. (White Man) In Hammersmith Palais wouldn't suit the kind of album London Calling is at all, unless they re-recorded it.

I've been intending to for quite some time, as well as Super Blackmarket Clash - but as ever, the problem is too much music, not enough money. I listen to a very wide range of different music types, which makes it difficult to acquire a fully comprehensive selection of any one band.
