THE CLASH - GIVE EM ENOUGH ROPE - RARE VINYL ALBUM - SLEEVE ERROR.

Fantastic second album from one of the most creative and respected punk band's of all time.

The Clash exploded in true punk style, they crashed from late 70's punk rock into the 80's and beyond, never compromising and ever changing while retaining their devoted and loyal fan base.

This quality second album from the people's band featured a great selection of powerful songs and was a massive step up from their debut which suffered from poor production.

Give Em Enough Rope was pure Clash firing on all cylinders, the sound and songwriting was so on point, it was very powerful stuff back in the day and it still stands up now as a solid rock record, so it's an absolutely essential purchase, it's all here and then some, there was Punk, there was Music but above all that there was quite simply "THE CLASH"...!

This Spanish issue is quite different from its UK equivalent, firstly and most obviously the rear sleeve is printed in black and white, also the song titles are in Spanish with the english equivalent in brackets underneath also, JULIE'S BEEN WORKING FOR THE DRUG SQUAD is incorrectly listed as JULIE'S IN THE DRUG SQUAD.

The sleeve is in decent condition overall with minor edge / storage wear and the vinyl is looking very good considering it's age with just the odd light surface mark that shouldn't affect play.

Lastly this still retains its hype sticker which translates ROUND PRICE OF CBS -  ALSO ON CASSETTE so overall this is a very nice addition to any collection of note.

A very rare import "vinyl" must have Clash album for any serious Clash / Punk rock record collector.

Sold with no reserve, check out my other items, lots more punk and Clash to find.
