This is a fine original U.S. pressing copy of an early odds-and-ends comp by the Clash, released as a 10" LP in 1980.  Along with the Sex Pistols, the Clash were at the forefront of Britain's mid-'70s punk explosion.  This record's tracks date from 1977-80, and include "Capital Radio One" (released on a limited edition bonus EP with early U.K. copies of the group's debut LP), one track from the debut that was left off the U.S. version ("Cheat"), an extended version of the 1980 single "Bankrobber," and several b-sides, including covers of the reggae classics "Pressure Drop" and "Armagideon Time."  The jacket has a name written in pen on the back cover, and some basically invisible indentations on the front cover from when the jacket was used as a backing to write on, and is otherwise close to pristine -- EX(+).  The disc has some scuffing, mostly on side 2, and plays with some light surface noise (EX).

I’m in the process of selling off a large personal collection amassed over two decades. All discs have been stored in plastic lined inner sleeves separate from their sleeves. The sleeves have been stored in plastic sleeves. I have play graded (spot checked) discs except where otherwise noted.

If you'd like to order multiple items, I'll happily combine them so that you won't have to pay multiple shipping charges.
