Re: A journey into the Clash CDs discography, part 1
Thanks very much for this. Is there a definitive discography site out there somewhere that you use for reference?

Re: A journey into the Clash CDs discography, part 1
The only reference is my collection of CDs and some books for the recording dates, mainly "The Complete Clash" by Keith Topping. Some tracks have the same source but released then in a different way (e.g n.33 and 42), I have not listed in the extras "Police & Thieves / Blitzkrieg Bop (Live)" hidden-track from the promo-CD "Rockers Galore" because a better version is in one of the last M.D. remasters.

Re: A journey into the Clash CDs discography, part 1
Well, this is not a precise chronological discography but only a list of all the tracks released on official CDs plus some extras (vinyl, promo, etc. as The Clash, not participations). I divided all in periods for easier consultation, however "1-2 Crush on You" was recorded in March 1978 and published as B-side of "Tommy Gun", so it will be in the next part. Thanks for your interest, corrections and additions are welcome!101Walterton wrote: ↑19 Sep 2018, 4:41amYeah that cleared it up
Why is 1-2 Crush On You not included?

The b side 1-2 Crush On You was recorded in 1978 but it was first recorded as part of the Polydor demos in 1976.
