Gl\u00e6deligt nyt! 20. maj udgives en ny extended jubil\u00e6ums-udgave p\u00e5 3-dbl. vinyl af The Clash’s uforlignelige, st\u00e6rke svanesang Combat Rock<\/em> (1982). Her pressetekst og tracklist…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Originally released in May 1982, \u2018Combat Rock\u2019 is the final album from The Clash of Joe Strummer, Mick Jones, Paul Simonon and Topper Headon. Featuring two of the band\u2019s most well-known songs, \u2018Should I Stay Or Should I Go\u2019 and \u2018Rock The Casbah\u2019. Now re-released as a 180g 3LP special edition, with an additional 12-tracks compiled by The Clash.<\/em> <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having returned to London following their pivotal 17-show residency at New York\u2019s Bond\u2019s Casino in 1981, the band rehearsed and recorded at The People\u2019s Hall in the squatted Republic of Frestonia near Latimer Road in London and from there they embarked on a tour of the East and South East Asia, during which the album sleeve image was captured by Pennie Smith in Thailand. <\/em> <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The tracks on \u2018The People\u2019s Hall\u2019 chart the period from what was their last single Radio Clash right up to the release of Combat Rock, including unheard, rare and early versions of tracks.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also includes rare Pennie Smith images + history of Frestonia essay by Tom Vague.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
