Clash 1st Press OZ LP Combat rock EX ’82 Epic ELPS4287 + Poster & Inner Punk

Original OZ 1st press LP released in 1982 on Epic Records. Cat:ELPS4287. Comes with foldout poster and printed inner bag.
On the surface of things, Combat Rock appears to be a retreat from the sprawling stylistic explorations of London Calling and Sandinista! The pounding arena rock of "Should I Stay or Should I Go" makes the Clash sound like an arena rock band, and much of the album boasts a muscular, heavy sound courtesy of producer Glyn Johns. But things aren't quite that simple. Combat Rock contains heavy flirtations with rap, funk, and reggae, and it even has a cameo by poet Allen Ginsberg if this album is, as it has often been claimed, the Clash's sellout effort, it's a very strange way to sell out. Even with the infectious, dance-inflected new wave pop of "Rock the Casbah" leading the way, there aren't many overt attempts at crossover success, mainly because the group is tearing in two separate direction.

Tracks : Know your rights/ car jamming/ Should I stay or should I go/ Rock the Casbah/ Red angel dragnet/ Straight to hell/ Overpowered by funk/ Atom tan/ Sean Flynn/ Ghetto defendant/ Inoculated city/ Death is a star.
