It has to be the White Man In Hammersmith Palais for me but recently I haven't been able to get Spanish Bombs out of my head.. but all Clash songs are my faves partciulary the earlier ones on Give 'Em Enough Rope and their first album.... BACK IN THE GARAGGEEEE!!

Police and Thieves- Early reggae influence on this one makes for some good listening.

Not sure about a favourite. I'd say London Calling was really their stand out album. I like a few tracks off that like Clampdown, Guns of Brixton, Lost in the Supermarket, I'm Not Down.

I don't recall comparing them or saying the Clash version was better. I like both versions myself.

not sure about "Police & Thieves" but I love their version of "Armagideon Time"....

my fave Clash cover is Pressure Drop - that's just mostly because it's fairly close to Toots' original
