The Story Of The Clash, Volume One (1988)
I can’t help it. I just don’t see how this is a great band by any stretch of the imagination. The vocals can be horrible, and most of the songs are just decent exercises in “punk rock”. Yes, I’ve listened to the entire thing several times. Yes, punk rock changed the musical world. But so did Bob Dylan, and I think he’s pretty d@mn mediocre too.
Grade: B-
