\nP\u00e5 dagen efter et charmeforladt MTV-cirkus var i K\u00f8benhavn og man derfra kun kunne blive overbevist om at tidens popul\u00e6rmusik i bedste fald er betydningsl\u00f8s, i v\u00e6rste fald stend\u00f8d, sender vi herfra opm\u00e6rksomhed til en tid, da dette langtfra var tilf\u00e6ldet. The Clash, historiens m\u00e5ske allerbedste og mest udfordrende rockband, har netop f\u00e5et udsendt en box med samtlige dets singler + B-sider. Over f\u00e5 \u00e5r gennemgik Strummer, Jones, Simonon og Headon en f\u00e6lles musikalsk rejse, der h\u00f8rt udfra disse singler fremst\u00e5r superimponerende i sin kvalitet og udviklingsspeed. Fra tidlig punk over rocknroll, soul, ska, reggae, tidlig hip-hop var The Clash aldrig det mindste bange for at blande fremmede stilarter og farver ind i eget udtryk. Det kom der som oftest stor, berigende musik ud af, hvilket til overflod kan h\u00f8res p\u00e5 boxens 19 (!) nedenst\u00e5ende singler.<\/p>\n
