Explore The Clash’s London Calling (in 5 Minutes) | Liner Notes

[@luisfernandovilladiaz2415]

This album is so old and yet sounds so new.

[@the_emmo]

luis fernando villa diaz Agree.

[@fuzzydunlop4513]

YES YES YES!!!!! This album means so much to me. I was coming off a drug addiction just turning 18, and after just started driving. I was kind of into music, but was trying to listen to more music and diversify my tastes. My dad and I didn't have the closest relationship, but we were working on it and it was getting better. I remember when he gave me the CD to play in my car, and while it took awhile, it just kept growing on me. It was one of the first albums I really listened to whole. We really bonded over it and it started my love for music and collecting music. Not to mention, I just broke up with my girlfriend at the time, and Train in Vain basically captured all I felt in a much needed upbeat way

[@samsungsnake101]

I literally said fuck yeah out loud when I saw this video

[@jonathangillis4926]

sa pr lol me too!

[@amyo]

Love flylo

[@jklaw20]

[@MitchGurowitz]

The Clash is my all time favorite band. I saw them 12 times & met Joe once. Thanks! Great video!

[@the_emmo]

Mitch Gurowitz You're so lucky!

[@DiegoCarteiroPereira]

One of the best albums of all time

[@Eidcdc]

This is my favirite album!! Please now do Horses by Patti Smith

[@larrydong5746]

Adrian García Martínez YES

[@bleh1967]

I second this

[@futuretell]

Adrian García Martínez Yes yes yes

[@prod.yungskum2751]

Do Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division

[@somelatinodude4582]

Fear of Music/Remain in Light by Talking Heads, please?

[@pablofichaje]

My favourite song from this album is Clampdown

[@jaramoneja]

damn, that pronunciation of Simonon is irritating

[@danielkeeling3895]

literally came down to the comments to say the same thing

[@NadaCero]

Train in Vain is probably the greatest album closer ever

[@PieBlaCon]

Eagle of Death Metal This Must Be The Place?

[@SLASHERHEATH]

Definitely one of the greats, but I'd also pitch Tomorrow Never Knows (Beatles), Jungleland (Springsteen), Voodoo Child, Slight Return (Hendix) and The Tourist (Radiohead)

[@gruntpocalypsenow]

I prefer Rock and Roll Suicide

[@scylla019]

New York I love you but you’re bringing me down - lcd soundsystem

[@louiso.4325]

A day in the life (sgt pepper), answering machine (let it be), and elegie (horses) are amazing closers on their respective albums too.

[@robbietherabbit]

My favorite album of all time

[@svensshed1564]

One of the greats there is no doubt. I still listen to strummer and I listen to what was before and what came after

[@perpetualmotion21]

all-time favorite album. thanks for this! Do Exile on Main Street next!

[@andrewbrown1463]

One of the top 5 albums ever recorded. Brilliant.

[@chrissvitreoushumour]

do The Glow PT 2!

[@rubendelacruz7395]

Yes please!

[@simonchemnitz4146]

Yes.

[@arono9304]

YES

[@Sebvibevanse]

napol3on is a nice guy yeah definitely. I feel like it doesn't get enough praise.

[@mattp6035]

"Broke and ready to rock" best quote ive heard in a while

[@willr8764]

Such a good album... My favourite group of the 70s. Even the filler tracks like "The Card Cheat" and "I'm Not Down" are terrific.

[@jaredfreeley8283]

I’m Not Down as filler?!!!

[@gabrielg7030]

I didn't liked the album when i first heard it years ago. But after hearing the debut, and having some context, it may be worth a second time...

[@lrl5829]

I wish this video was longer, one of my top 5 favourite albums ever

[@Oipeeepwns]

JUST LISTEN TO THE WHOLE ALBUM!!! ITS INCREDIBLE

[@dancelittlesquire]

been waiting for this one. an all time favourite LP.

[@jackofnotrades8648]

Hell yeah, I don't know anyone who doesn't like this album in some capacity. It's pretty much a universal classic

[@88skisupreme]

Machine Gun Etiquette, another post punk masterpiece, was recorded at the same time, in the same studio. The Dammned and the Clash even do back up vocals on each other's albums.

[@densoss]

One of my favorite albums with one of my favorite main single by my favorite punk band, with a one of my favorite cover that had one of my favorite rock photograph and one of my favorite reference to another rock artist. FUCKING CLASSIC

[@dylandarcy1150]

honestly it's impossible to find someone who doesn't like this album. one of the most beloved ever

[@Mrmapleleaffan13]

I like they put black Caribbean influences in this classic album 2:14 Then a second song also heavily reggae influenced just amazing 3:17

[@patrickmcwilliams2111]

Do "the chilling thrilling sounds of the haunted house" next.

[@oswaldsweezlebogger6826]

Overall pretty good (just a few inaccuracies), which is better than most videos on the Clash.

[@gagefraw3182]

Predictions on the next Liner Notes episode: Siamese Dream, Blood Sugar Sex Magik, or Let It Be (Replacements)

[@spaceinbetween6591]

Gage Fraw the beatles arent hipster enough unfortunately

[@stuartfishman1044]

Let It Be by the Replacements is the greatest album ever to have that name.

[@javierrodriguez4707]

Best album I've listened to in my whole life. Hands down.

[@gigadunk4811]

love guns of brixton. my favorite clash song

[@ew11985]

Please please PLEASE do Black Flag's Nervous Breakdown!!!!

[@jackburton3540]

My war would be a more interesting one to talk about though

[@diegotg7071]

Time for some Neil Young

[@spaceinbetween6591]

my favorite postpunk album

[@yyy333]

ha they used the 1991 single artwork for Train in Vain, try again Pitchfork!

[@jimmyjazz95]

Nice little video. Especially the points you make about how they differed from the Pistols. P.S. you're pronouncing Simonon wrong...... P.S. - Paul Simonon haha

[@louiso.4325]

You guys should also do these albums! Let it Be: The Replacements Murmur or Automatic for the People: REM My War: Black Flag Parklife or Blur: Blur Blood Sugar Sex Magik, Californiacation, or Stadium Arcadium: Red Hot Chili Peppers Never Mind the Bullocks: Sex Pistols Bringing it all Back Home, Highway 61 Revisited, or Blonde on Blonde: Bob Dylan Rubber Soul, Revolver, Sgt Pepper, Magical Mystery Tour, OR the White Album: the Beatles [ or all of them ;) ] All things must pass: George Harrison Unknown Pleasures: Joy Division The Stooges: The Stooges Kick out the Jams!: The MC5

[@GrayWoIf]

Ahhhhhhhhhh love THE CLASH!!

[@mattford1593]

Simonon is pronounced like 'cinnamon'. Otherwise, good.

[@fabianoalves1928]

Please please PLEASE do Black Flag's Nervous Breakdown!!!! Fear of Music/Remain in Light by Talking Heads, please? do The Glow PT 2!

[@klipkultur2951]

My favorite part: That bass at the start of Train in Vain. ''Ptong ting ptong ting pitong''

[@matthewsutton3682]

Randy Newman's 12 Songs, Nilsson Schmilsson, XTC's Drums and Wires/Black Sea/Skylarking. Kink's Muswell Hillbillies or Village Green would all be good candidates

[@jmic3016]

The only band that matters

[@loisjackson1779]

The clash still is the only band that matters

[@EclecticoIconoclasta]

You are forgetting Lil Pump

[@ferrioseco5139]

[@caseyjones9621]

Revolution Rock is the best track on this record

[@DJSTOEK]

💕😷😷

[@williamfarmer4701]

God, your pronunciation of Simonon genuinely upsets me

[@josefmiles2887]

Sorry I liked that child to much

[@Chris-vs4wt]

Wait they were anti capitalist

[@Traintruck-vz8yd]

Punk rock being leftist? Wow

[@zargonthemagnificent330]

"Pub-rock roots" ??? Whaaaaat? The Clash were NEVER a pub rock band. Listen to genuine pub rock bands like Kilburn & The High Roads (who morphed into Ian Dury & The Blockheads) or Brinsley Schwarz (Nick Lowe's original band) and then compare with the Clash's first album. Not remotely similar.True, Strummer's first band The 101's were pretty pub-rock, but Mick Jones was always more into what we now call "classic rock".

[@luismarioguerrerosanchez4747]

Compared to Exile on Mn Street?, that's an insult to London Calling

[@thecitizenjoan]

Well The Clash is the Only Band thats Matters

[@33Manga33]

Yo

[@Chud_Baker]

Geez it's kinda bs how my fav band was a bunch of sjw's

Wowowow, what's wrong with fascism?
