London Calling (2019 Limited Special Sleeve)

London Calling is the third studio album from The Clash. It was recorded with producer Guy Stevens and originally released as a double album in December 1979. Bridging a traditional punk rock sound and a new wave aesthetic, London Calling reflects the band's growing interest in styles beyond their punk roots, including reggae, rockabilly, ska, New Orleans R&B, pop, lounge jazz and hard rock. Themes include social displacement, unemployment, racial conflict, drug use and the responsibilities of adulthood. The album was a top ten chart success in the UK and its lead single London Calling was a top 20 single. The album is considered one of the greatest albums of all time and it features one of the most iconic sleeves of all time - shot by photographer Pennie Smith - which featured on a Royal Mail postage stamp in 2020.
