The Clash "London Calling" 40th Anniversary

 It's hard to believe that this album is celebrating 40 years in 2019!  For many, London Calling represents the pinnacle of music from The Clash, while for others it represents selling out their Punk roots.  Either way, the album is a powerful musical representation of the band, the time, and the way the music world was changing.

Incorporating a wider range of styles such as punk, reggae, rockabilly, ska, New Orleans R&B, pop, lounge jazz, and hard rock, "London Calling" is a melange of musical stylings.  While the album draws on the entirety of rock and roll's past for its sound, the concepts and lyrical themes are drawn from the history, politics and myths associated with the genre.
