During the Malvinas War, the most listened to English album in Argentina was the iconic “Combat Rock”, quoted by Charly Garcia in “No Bombaden Buenos Aires”. Although it included the two biggest hits in the entire career of the punk band The Clash (“Should I Stay or should I Go” and the still very popular “Rock the Kasbah”), the truth is that, when they released it, Joe Strummer and Mick Jones did not speak to each other, to the point that they recorded their parts in different studios so as not to have to cross paths. The original mix, never released in its entirety, was different from the album that was finally released in 1982, mixed by producer Glyn Johns. That first mix had longer songs with avant garde sound atmospheres. This edition includes the album as it was known at the time, but now with the addition of an entire disc dedicated not to all, but a good part of that mix prior to Johns’ participation. There are interesting things, for example the 7-minute neo-psychedelic version of “Sean Flynn” and also contributions from the poet Allen Ginsberg and songs with different lyrics.
