The Clash other tracks

The non-album tracks by The Clash all rated and reviewed. To count, it has to been released on an album or a compilation and different versions of songs already reviewed (Aside from dub versions) aren't included.

1-2 Crush on You: 7/10 the lyrics are an odd choice, but it's a pretty fun song even if it's a tiny bit naff.

1977: 8/10 this early track has all the raw energy and ferocity of The Clash's debut.

Armagideon Time: 7/10 although it feels softer than many of the band's other similarly-themed songs, The Clash always do an interesting political rant.

Bankrobber: 8/10 a slow but intelligent reggae track that doesn't waste a second.

Capital Radio One: 8/10 another entertaining critique of the music industry that's crucially rooted in reality and feels genuine. All the references to London and British history are always great.

Capital Radio Two: 7/10 weaker but still solid.

City of the Dead: 8/10 it's admittedly formulaic but it still totally rocks.

Clash City Rockers: 7/10 not bad or anything but it's basically what we've heard from the band many times before.

Complete Control: 8/10 a hugely entertaining attack on the music industry.

Cool Confusion: 7/10 like the title suggests, the writing is confused but this is still a cool song.

Do it Now: 6/10 this bonus track from Cut the Crap is pretty disposable, but at least unlike most of the songs on the album it has energy.

Every Little Bit Hurts: 8/10 a slightly odd choice of song for the band, but they adapt and rise to the challenge remarkably well.

First Night Back in London: 7/10 a good beat lifts this up past uninspired lyrics.

Gates of the West: 6/10 fun enough but lacking in meaning.

Groovy Times: 6/10 this one's easy to enjoy although it is fairly mediocre.

Heart & Mind: 7/10 while not a standout, this is still a rarity you'll be happy to discover.

I Fought the Law: 9/10 an excellent cover song.

Jail Guitar Doors: 8/10 although not an album track, it packs a surprising amount of punch and could have come straight off one of their first 3 albums.

Justice Tonight/Kick it Over: 8/10 this dub-step version of Armagideon Time surpasses the original by a clear mile.

Kill Time: 7/10 a catchy and entertaining, if somewhat passionless, rarity.

Listen: 8/10 a short but fun instrumental.

Lonesome Me: 6/10 a fun if whiny song that doesn't really sound like The Clash.

Long Time Jerk: 6/10 it's a reasonably catchy song. It fails to be anything more than that though.

Midnight to Stevens: 7/10 an emotive and interesting-sounding song even if it doesn't stick in the memory.

Mustapha Dance: 8/10 as always, it's an interesting and highly entertaining dub-step transformation of one of the band's previous songs.

One Emotion: 7/10 it's simplistic for sure, but for a demo it's surprisingly fun.

Outside Broadcast: 5/10 the Radio Clash songs continue to be underwhelming and overly experimental. This is one radio station which needs to stop broadcasting.

Pressure Drop: 8/10 although the lyrics are lacking, the energy of the song more than makes up for it.

Radio 5: 6/10 like all the Radio songs, it's clever and experimental without being enjoyable.

Radio Clash: 6/10 while enjoyable on a superficial level, this remix of This is Radio Clash is too overdone to truly satisfy.

Robber Dub: 8/10 I do love The Clash doing their dub tracks.

Rockers Galore... UK Tour: 6/10 a harmless and inoffensive bit of nonsense.

Sex Mad Roar: 7/10 disposable but really quite fun.

Stop the World: 9/10 so, so underrated. A terrific psychedelic track even though the lyrics are hard to understand, though to be fair that was probably intentional.

The Beautiful People are Ugly too: 5/10 not to be confused with the Marilyn Manson song, especially as that song is miles better than this one despite its catchy moments.

The Magnificent Dance: 7/10 a well-played instrumental, although caged-in compared to many of the other instrumentals on this list.

The Man in Me: 5/10 Bob Dylan's lyrics are an asset, but the band don't back them up with any of their normal energy.

The Prisoner: 8/10 with plenty of darkly comic and brilliantly bitter lyrics and a typically energised instrumental this is a worthy B-Side to (White Man) In Hammersmith Palais.

This is Radio Clash: 7/10 this needs to learn a lot in the art of subtlety but at least it's audacious and lyrically interesting.

Time is Tight: 8/10 a fabulous instrumental.

Walk Evil Talk: 8/10 an excellent instrumental with a fascinating and, for a band like The Clash, unique blend of instruments, re-affirming that The Clash are so much more than just a punk band.

Where You Gonna Go (Soweto): 4/10 pretty lame and very badly recorded.

(White Man) In Hammersmith Palais: 9/10 despite being a somewhat depressing listen, this is a testament to the band's songwriting skill, versatility and general awesomeness.
