Wonderful album

Listening to it right now, solid top to bottom

Any other fans out there?

Its one of the best albums ever if you ask me. The amount of ambition and range in it is staggering for a band of that time, and there isn't one below-great track.

My favourite album by The Clash.

It is a great album but I don't think it's the best album of the punk era. Pink Flag is better imo by a walk.

I think it has a lot of filler.

The Clashes s/t was much better, but I do like London Calling.

London Calling is amazing. Great jazzy stuff on that album, along with hard rock, and of course, punk rock.

Lost in a Super Market is the best

I don't like post debut Clash much. Seems like every album had a ton of filler. I like Rudie Can't Fail, Spanish Bombs, Train In Vain, Lost In The Supermarket and Revolution Rock.
