Oddly Give Em Enough Rope is my fave Clash album,it catches the transition between the much cleaner stuff theyd do later,and the earlier go for broke style
You break it down well there. Its definitely an album that slots stylistically right between the first album and "London Calling". The songwriting becomes richer and more complex than on the debut and hints at the confectionary that was to come next. Its an important Clash album IMO and stands up well. "London Calling" is my favourite, such a variety to the songwriting.
