Cut The Crap is an album that most Clash fans love to pan. Me included! I remember buying the This Is England 12" and thinking GREAT! This is awesome, but then I bought Cut The Crap and was left scratching my head wondering WTF! My personal opinion is that Cut The Crap was mis-produced and just missing alot. Sure the departure of Mick Jones and Topper hurt The Clash, but live they were still cutting it as a 5 piece. The demo's I have here are incomplete, just to let anyone know. I have a total of 8 songs on this instead of the 14 or so that were recorded. Not to worry,because most of them ended up on Cut The Crap anyways. But, the cool thing is, you get to hear the songs that would make it onto Cut The Crap, as well as some VERY good songs that did not. Some of them you can find on The Clash On Broadway, but those are soundcheck versions and these are in a studio versions. The songs on this boot are way more rockin and just plain smoken hot. Enjoy

This Is England is on my "to-do pretty damn soon list" Ken. Never rated the the album to be honest except that one and one or two more. I think these demos are better though.
ReplyDeleteYep the last great Clash single. Much better songs on this boot though!
