1	Combat Rock (1982) more music like this by The Clash 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 ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $9.62!
2	The Essential Clash (2003) more music like this by The Clash Some would argue that if you only wanted two Clash discs in your collection, you should skip this 40-track overview and pick up The Clash and London Calling instead. No matter how transcendent those two albums are -- and they are among the very greatest popular music of the 20th century -- that overlooks the fact that the group had many, many ... see all copies from $16.03! new only from $16.03!
3	The Singles [2007] (2007) more music like this by The Clash The Singles is exactly what the title says -- a collection of the Clash's U.K. single A-sides. This approach can hardly result in a definitive compilation, since the Clash's albums were such cohesive, important works in their own right, and even more erratic LPs like Sandinista! and Combat Rock had their share of fine album tracks. Nevertheless, ... see all copies from $6.05! new only from $6.05!
4	Clash on Broadway [2004 Reissue] (2004) more music like this by The Clash Clash on Broadway is a fine triple-disc, 63-song box set covering the Clash's entire career. Although there are very few rarities, it does include all of the band's important songs, including cuts that were only available on EPs, singles, and B-sides. As a result, it's a useful box set even for dedicated fans, presenting the band's evolution in a ... see all copies from $42.74! new only from $42.74!
5	Story of the Clash, Vol. 1 (1988) more music like this by The Clash In some ways, the double-disc, 28-track compilation The Story of the Clash, Vol. 1 does its job quite well -- if the job is indeed presenting a relatively thorough overview for casual fans. The great majority of the band's hits and signature tunes are here, including album tracks and such non-LP singles as "Bankrobber," "Armagideon Time," and ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $25.21!
6	The Singles [Box Set] (2006) more music like this by The Clash Producing box sets of CD replicas of original 7" singles is a bit tricky: as 2006 sets by Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson prove, it's all too easy to sacrifice either completeness or historical accuracy for the sake of a set that's easy to package and sell. Elvis and Jacko both are cursed with extraordinarily large catalogs, however; even when ... see all copies from $65.68! new only from $65.68!
7	The Collection: The Clash/London Calling/Combat Rock [2005 Small Box] (2005) more music like this by The Clash In 2004, the folks at Sony repackaged the Clash's self-titled debut, London Calling, and Combat Rock in a three-disc longbox. In 2005, they decided to save on packaging and reissued the very same set in a slipcase as part of its Collection series. The merits of the records are well known to anyone who has spent any time listening to the band. In ... see all copies from $31.48! new only from $31.48!
8	The Singles (1991) more music like this by The Clash The Singles is exactly what the title says -- a collection of the Clash's U.K. single A-sides. This approach can hardly result in a definitive compilation, since the Clash's albums were such cohesive, important works in their own right, and even more erratic LPs like Sandinista! and Combat Rock had their share of fine album tracks. Nevertheless, ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $7.50!
9	The Collection: The Clash/London Calling/Combat Rock [2004 Long Box] (2004) more music like this by The Clash see all copies from $16.96! new only from $18.66!
10	Rock the First, Vol. 4 (1992) more music like this by Various Artists The fourth volume in the '80s retrospective Rock the First emphasizes alternative rock, stretching all the way from Blondie's new wave-goes-hip-hop classic "Rapture" to the Clash's pop-punk smash "Rock the Casbah" to the Red Hot Chili Peppers' incendiary reading of Stevie Wonder's "Higher Ground." A solid entry, although inclusions like Scandal's ... see all copies from $1.99!
11 view cover	The Essential Clash [The Essential Plus CD & DVD] (2005) more music like this by The Clash What degree of praise is there for the Clash that hasn't already been uttered or achieved elsewhere? Not much really, but just when the influx of best-of collections and anthologies has reached its saturation point, Epic issues Essential Plus, a compilation that gives the outstanding 2003 Essential Clash two-CD set a shot of adrenaline by ... see all copies from $29.10! new only from $29.10!
