Re: ROUND 3 - Sandinista! - Side One
The Leader is a touch slight, while I consider the other remaning tracks to be major works of the Clash Canon.

The Leader is pretty darn good live but the studio version doesn't quite get the same energy. Probably only suffers from being an S! track and didn't have the time spent on it that it deserved. In the same way that Brand New Cadillac works being a quick take The Leader suffers.

The cover gets it for me. Plodding, goes on too long, and a shit Jamaican accent from Joe.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

I love Junco Partner and I will probably be going down with that ship this or next round.

The Leader, quite a good number but doesn't match the quality of the others. It'll break my heart when Junco goes, fucking love that song.
