Micajah Henley: The Clash's Sandinista!, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Blurb

Following the success of their instantly iconic double LP, London Calling , The Clash set out to do something "triply outrageous." Named after the Nicaraguan rebels who successfully overthrew an authoritarian dictator, Sandinista! consists of 36 songs across six sides of vinyl, showcasing their politics and musical prowess through genres ranging from hip hop, reggae, jazz, gospel, calypso, and punk. Despite being considered one of the greatest albums of all-time, critics and fans have spent over 40 years debating whether the album would be better as a 12-track LP. This book entertains that idea and considers what is lost or gained in the process.
