Sensing the emollient rattle of Punk Rock was an artistic dead end, The Clash took an abrupt volte-face and invited american Sandy Pearlman to produce their second album.
Respected for his work with Blue Oyster Cult and The Dictators, Pearlman introduced a sheen that disturbed purists but introduced The Clash to a wider audience. The clear sound brought a new emphasis to the quartet's internal interplay and allowed the material to stand up in its own right.
1978's 'Give 'em Enough Rope' contains several of the band's most popular songs, which range from the defiant 'Tommy Gun' to the sensitive and personal 'Stay Free,' a contrast confirming The Clash's wider musical ambitions.
