It has been ages since I listened to it, but I remember liking the album when it came out. And it's got, far and away, the best sleeve of any post-Clash record.

Havana 3am is the epitome of “eh, this is all right.” I like it when it’s on, but never think about it or remember it when it’s not.

Yes. I suspect it was because it was the closest to northern soul of the post Clash releases, but even that is tenuous.

I love Yalla Yalla, but it wouldn't make my top five Strummer tunes.
