This is The Clash,  London Calling,  double 33 RPM  LP's.  The Clash were an English punk rock band formed in 1976 as part of the original wave of British punk.  The Clash had a rebellious attitude.  Their music insisted on addressing the conditions of poverty, petty injustice, and mundane life experienced by the people who bought their records.  For most of their recording career  The Clash  consisted of  Joe Strummer (vocals, rhythm guitar),  Mick Jones (lead guitar, lead vocals),  Paul Simonon (bass),  and Nicky 'Topper' Headon (drums).  Rolling Stones ranked  The Clash  #28 on their list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.  London Calling is their third studio album, with the albums songs generally about London and feature both fictional and life-based characters.  The album cover is in very good condition, and features a photo of bassist Paul Simonon smashing his Fender Precision Bass against the stage in 1979 at the Palladium in New York City.  Both of the double 33 RPM  LP's are in very good+ condition.  I find it a bit odd not having a gatefold cover for the double LP set, oh well...   Thank you for looking.
