I've come around to Trash City a bit but was massively underwhelmed on release. VERY surprised it is going to make the last two.
Really good tune bloody awful mix.
I find that's part of its charm. Everything about it seems a tribute to garage rock.

Hmmm if it had been mixed like a quick garage rock band track it may well have sounded much better. The mix is murky and poorly done.

Honestly, I kind of wish Mick hadn’t gotten so locked into the BAD groove and had been more restless. But I’m also that outlier that thinks BAD is overall underwhelming after a fairly strong start.
The difference between the two perhaps throws into very sharp relief who the driving force of the Clash's experimentation was. Mick was obviously the tunesmith, but I wonder how much of it was Joe saying "let's do this one as a soca tune."
Except for Mick's hip hop obsession which was very cutting edge at the time and he really saw it through with BAD.

Maybe, but it's also possible that without Mick, Joe's "wilderness years" never ended. Which is to say, Mick grounded him and gave him a confidence that he had a harder time regaining afterwards.
I thought we had Anthony Genn to thank for that?
