Advantages: Every song is great Disadvantages: Very varied styles though out
Well I can't see how you can go wrong, the only way you woulndn't like this ablum (if your a Clash fan anyway) is if you only like one stage of the Clashs development. The album start off being very punk and slowly turn more towards pop and blues. This CD spans there whole career.
Its very hard to give this ablum a general vibe as the track are all very different. If you haven't really heard of the Clash this is a great ablum to start off with as ... ...like (as the album is in cronalocical order).
The album for me have 3 high lights, one right at the start, one in middle and one at the very end. These track at White Riot, London Calling and Should I Stay Or Should I Go. All of which I'll sure you've heard.

Also, to get a true reflection of the Clash, one must also consider the quality of many album-only tracks which aren't featured on this compliation for obvious reasons. This does not detract from what a great album this is, with the ability to appeal to a wide and diverse audience. ...
