The Clash - Give 'Em Enough Rope

So the Clash... What can I say that hasn't already been said? They are such a major influence on so many bands to this day, and they have indeed set the bar... and that bar is high. 
This album came out in 78' and was their second studio album, and from what I have read it was the first album they released in the U.S.  Luckily I have this in my LP selection so I was able to fire up the turntable and crank it to 11 which is one more than 10.  No matter how many times I hear this album I can't get enough, the whole thing is amazing.
I know that a majority of you have heard the album and I am not going to beat a dead horse, but if you have not had the pleasure then by all means pick this one up.
Now on a side note if you haven't had a chance to see the documentary called "The Future is Unwritten" you should check it out.  It is about Joe Strummer, but there is allot of good Clash stuff that as a fan hits the spot.

So there.
