The Clash Hits Back features 32 of the band’s iconic tracks, across a two-CD set. The tracklisting is sequenced from the band’s legendary Brixton Fairdeal show in 1982 and contains the best studio recordings of the full set, plus eight additional iconic tracks. It comes with the original setlist, handwritten by Joe Strummer which he would tape to the back of his Telecaster before each gig. Review: the clash - great cd... lots of great tracks.. superb. good price Review: Crystal Clear - I was a little sceptical about how the remastered tracks would sound, but after listening through twice i'm thrilled. The heavyweight vinyl, touching sleeve note and poster made the whole experience of my first listen pretty much unbeatable and not to sound cheesy but I love the fact I was listening to the tracks in the order Joe once meant them to be heard. The sound quality is excellent, the delivery was speedy and safe and i'm pleased to add this record to my collection.

Wow! Sounds great on vinyl!!
Added vinyl to my CD version, well worth the money. Sounds quality is fab. The artwork works better on the vinyl set - ticket facsimile visible for example!! Based on a Brixton 1982 setlist with 8 extra great tracks it’s a great listen. Timeless classics.

Decent compilation for the uninitiated (like me).
The tracks are for the most part excellent; the track order said to reflect Joe Strummer's live order. A lot of music for the money, a sturdy outer sleeve and printed inner sleeves make it a worthwhile purchase. I don't know how impressed the die hard Clash fans will be, but for the casual Clasher this a pretty decent 3-LP compilation with more than acceptable audio.

Generally better sound quality than previous collection
Most of the tracks on this which are also on the earlier double-cd (The Story Of The Clash Volume 1 (2004)) definitely sound much better (livelier, better dynamic and frequency range) on this collection. Some of them are vast improvements and really bring the music to life, so for me it's worth the money for the improved sound quality. The music. of course, is brilliant and really doesn't need any further words of praise from me - the Clash are the Clash and if you're reading this review you probably already like them!

at last the way nature intended
just got this today to hear the remasters it does sound great but more important is the track listing and the way its sequenced.this being a live set list of studio versions makes perfect sense. story of the clash had all the right songs but compiled them in terrible order and the essential clash with its chronological order was boring and predictable.so for once we have 24 tracks the way the clash themselves banged them out at the Brixton fairdeal show in 82 .the 8 tracks added on at the end dont sound out of place either.what we get is all the singles bar remote control ,no loss, plus all the key album tracks it goes perfect with all the other clash albums and also as a stand alone best of .so ditch all they old compilations and fire this on the i pod and your good to go .

... cd was brought for a friend of mine who liked this cd very much
This cd was brought for a friend of mine who liked this cd very much!!. A great collection of classic clash tracks/singles on two cds that have been digitally remastered. This is probably one of the best collections of clash tracks.Recommended

Clash Hits Back (Yet) Again
The place to start if you're looking to investigate the Clash (next London Calling, then everything else except Cut the Crap). The sound of these remastered tracks is a huge improvement on the perfectly serviceable 1999 remasters and makes the investment in yet another Clash comp well worthwhile for those of us that fall for it each time. Highly recommended as is the 2013 remastered album box set.

Every hit you can imagine in one place. The price is well deserved for the amount of content it provides

本作品の良いところは、 ・ベスト盤と思えないほど装丁が洗練されている ・ペーパースリーブ見開きに書かれたジョー・ストラマーの言葉が印象的(下記) ・リマスターで以前のベスト盤よりも音が良くなった ・1982年のブリクストン・フェアディール公演でのセットリストに準拠した曲順(ライブのセットリストはジョー・ストラマーが毎回ものすごく時間をかけて作っていたという) ペーパースリーブ見開きに書かれたジョー・ストラマーの言葉は以下です。 "I think people ought to know that We're anti-fascist, We're anti-violence, We're anti-racist and We're pro-creative. We're against ignorance". この言葉を見るだけでも、クラッシュの世界がいかに奥深いものなのかが感じられます。 また、「7人の偉人」の歌詞に、 "カール・マルクスとフリードリッヒ・エンゲルスが、 セブン・イレブンのレジにやってきた マルクスはすかんぴん、だが、頭は悪くない エンゲルスが、マルクスに、小銭を貸してやる" とあります。 かのマルクスとエンゲルスの関係を、クラッシュはこんな形で歌詞にしていたなんて。思いがけない発見でした。 このアルバムを通じて、自分はこれまで、クラッシュのことをきちんと理解していなかったことに気付きました。

Certes, sur cette compilation, il n'y a rien d'original. Le fan détient déjà de toute évidence l'ensemble de la discographie du groupe, voire plus. Aucun titre ne le surprend : que ce soit WHITE RIOT, version différente de celle des LP's anglais ou hollandais (les plus diffusés et connus), qui se trouve sur les pressages américains ou nippons ou ROCK THE CASBAH mixé par Bob CLEARMOUNTAIN, ces morceaux figurent forcément sur un des opus qu'il possède et ne déclencheront pas la surprise ultime souvent recherchée sur ce type de produit. Reste l'objet qui est somptueux, surtout en vinyle (3 x LP) dont les pochettes intérieures comportent des photos assez rares. La set liste est parfaite et tous les standards du groupe y sont présents dans un ordre anarchique, ne respectant pas la chronologie des dates de publication : normal, elle correspond à l'ordonnancement des titres joués par le groupe le 10 juillet 1982 à BRIXTON lors de la tournée CASBAH CLUB. Alors, me direz-vous, à qui s'adresse-t-elle ? Je dirais plutôt à un néophyte qui ne connaît pas le CLASH et aimerait se faire une (petite) idée de l'ensemble de son oeuvre. En ce sens, c'est une réussite car pour un prix raisonnable, on a une large palette de morceaux significatifs, variés et symboliques du répertoire du groupe. Et pour le coup, la qualité est homogène et permet de mesurer son évolution, lui qui a su faire progresser son PUNK ROCK primaire - bien que jamais médiocre, ni régressif - (WHITE RIOT, LONDON'S BURNING, JANIE JONES) en un rock bien ancré dans son époque et formidablement structuré, bigarré, en perpétuel essor (MAGNIFICENT SEVEN, STRAIGHT TO HELL, THE CALL UP etc…), pour un résultat déjà étonnant il y a plusieurs décennies, mais dont la vitalité ne se dément toujours pas, en dépit du temps qui s'égrène. Il fige ces 32 morceaux dans le marbre car ils restent toujours d'une remarquable actualité, tant par leur production, non datée, que par leur valeur intrinsèque, ainsi que leur fraîcheur immaculée. Certains de ces albums sont devenus des classiques, tout simplement. Cette compilation pourra donner à quelques curieux l'envie de se les procurer et ainsi aller un peu plus loin dans la découverte du groupe. Quant à leurs fans inconditionnels dont je fais partie, cela ne vous aura pas échappé, elle constitue un beau produit qui viendra compléter un ensemble déjà bien fourni. Mais quand on aime… En ce sens, elle peut être considérée comme une réussite totale. Utile et exaltant.
