Album: “London Calling: The Legacy Edition [Digipak] [Rema”

Description

LONDON CALLING: THE LEGACY EDITION includes a bonus DVD featuring an exclusive 45 minute documentary on the making of the album. <p>The Clash: Joe Strummer, Mick Jones (vocals, guitar); Paul Simonon (vocals, bass instrument); Topper Headon (drums, percussion). <p>Additional personnel: Baker Glare (whistling); The Irish Horns (brass); Micky Gallagher (organ). <p>Recording information: Wessex Studios, England (07/1979 - 08/1979). <p>If punk rejected pop history, LONDON CALLING reclaimed it, albeit with a knowing perspective. The scope of this double set is breaktaking, encompassing reggae, rockabilly and the group's own furious mettle. Where such a combination might have proved over-ambitious, the Clash accomplish it with swaggering panache. Guy Stevens, who produced the group's first demos, returns to the helm to provide a confident, cohesive sound equal to the set's brilliant array of material. Boldly assertive and superbly focused, London Calling contains many of the quartet's finest songs and is, by extension, virtually faultless.
