A fantastic mix of melody, anger, guitars, swagger. I grew up on the US version, which is inferior to this one, although I miss "Complete Control"--perhaps my all-time favorite Clash song.

Lou Reed
Some wonderful & unique songs and some filler. I will keep coming back to "Perfect Day," "Walk on the Wild Side," and "Satellite of Love." The other songs, not so much.
