Around here, "forgetting The Clash" is considered by some like a major offense ... Thought you'd like to know ...  Nice list BTW. |

I just listened to Give 'Em Enough Rope yesterday....It seems to be an overlooked Clash album. "Tommy Gun" is my favorite from that album.

Speaking of #50, good choise. Southern Harmony makes for an excellent listen.
Sorry, pcook, had to knock that one off the list. I forgot about Amnesiac, so I had to put it at #26.

So, last night, I scored the lists. Took about 3 hours. Ken gave me the scoring system and the only change I made to it was that I added an extra 10 points for every listing of a particular album after its first listing. Every album in the top 50 got appeared on a minimum of 3 lists, so I stopped at 50. Can't help but grin when I think of how happy Mary's gonna be with the end of this list.
Here's a list of the participants.
