The Clash - London Calling
Is a cliché to call this one of the best albums ever made? Yes. But it's also kind of undeniable.
This is not a punk album, and the Clash wasn't really a punk band. Putting a finger on what they were is hard, because they straddled many genres, from ska to reggae to R&B to pop to straight-up rock. And it's all here.
This is my original from 1979 - the US version. It cost something like $7 because the band insisted it be cheap.
