Oh shit man, you're in for a treat!  It's an even wider range of genres than London Calling.

One of the greatest albums ever. I play "Magnificent 7" & "Corner Soul" the most. You really can't go wrong picking any song, though.

This album is the clash at their most unfocused. Some good stuff on there but some crap to. I prefer Combat Rock, or London Calling. Of course their older more pure punk stuff is dope too. The only "Clash" album that I can't stand at all is that abortion "Cut the Crap" which was ruined by their manager.
