After catching one cut from the 25th anniversary issue of London Calling on Brent's show this afternoon, I thought I better get another copy so I ordered it from Amazon. I still have my double lp from the spring of grade eleven in 1980. Just the one as so many people had extra copies I never needed my party one. Their previous lp, Give 'Em Enough Rope has seen at least three versions in my house, a good lp, a party lp and a really cheap bootleg tape I bought for about 89 cents in a market in in Poland. [I think one cut on the tape is entitled "Last Gong in Town".] I liked the second lp better than London Calling as a whole but the title song is one of the best rock songs I have ever heard. The 25th anniversary version has a DVD as well as a CD of lost tapes from just before the London Calling recording sessions called "The Vanilla Tapes" which should be good and noisy.

By the way, that is Joe Strummer in 1976 up there to the right next to Tommy and Deedee Ramone. Nice pre-punk Dorothy Hamel hair, Joe.
