Superb Clash retrospective
, August 30, 2001Reviewer: mike0870uk - See all mike0870uk's reviewsAs an introduction to the Clash's best material, you won't find anything comparable or affordable. Everythings here, most of the singles, and practically all of their explosive debut, plus a good deal more. Standout tracks are LONDONS BURNING, WHITE MAN IN HAMMERSMITH PALAIS, LONDON CALLING, TRAIN IN VAIN, and ROCK THE CASBAH...but really, everything on here is rocking and vital! Great compilation. -
the truth
, July 26, 2001THis really is the ultimate Clash collection. I bought this in 1991, then I bought the boxed set, but this has all the essentials. START and finish here.

Pro Reviews: Story of the Clash, Vol. 1 (Remastered)
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews In some ways, the double-disc, 28-track compilation The Story of the Clash, Vol. 1 does its job quite well -- if the job is indeed presenting a relatively thorough overview for casual fans. The great majority of the band's hits and signature tunes are here, including album tracks and such non-LP singles as "Bank Robber," "Armagideon Time," and "Capital Radio," albeit in non-chronological order. While there may be many worthy tunes missing, nothing here is undeserving of inclusion, and its expansive method of operation works in its favor, since it hints at the richness of the Clash's music. After all, it's no great loss to have such official singles as "Hitsville U.K." missing, since there are some extraordinary album tracks included. Still, the compilation is a little problematic. Not because the music isn't great -- it's so great that the rather bewildering sequencing does nothing to dilute its power -- but because it's hard to tell who needs this compilation, apart from complete neophytes. Granted, in 1988, it marked the first CD release of this music, but since the appearance of The Singles, Super Black Market Clash, and the comprehensive box set Clash on Broadway, no diehard need own it, unless they need the otherwise unavailable edits of such songs as "The Magnificent Seven" that are included here in lieu of the full-length originals. For novices, it's not a bad introduction at all, but it's sort of like a set of training wheels on a bicycle. Still, as training wheels go, it's about the best Clash compilation out there, since it draws a fuller picture than The Singles and is more manageable than Clash on Broadway. Of course, jumping in with The Clash or London Calling is just as effective an introduction. - Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide |
