Good value four concert CDs
You can never tire of hearing clash songs, particularly different versions of the same songs.Really good value for a CD for each of four different concerts.The packaging is good too.

The only band that mattered 40 years ago!
This is a great package for any true Clash fan! I saw them 40 years ago playing pretty much the contents of disc 1 so I had to have this set and I was pleasantly surprised by the overall quality of the sound. Discs 1,2 and 4 very good considering their age and only disc 3 dips in sound quality but is still very listenable. As for the performances well this is The Clash tearing it up as only they could. Full of passion, fury and fire. Great set lists with a few rare songs thrown in ,'Julie's been working for the drug squad'!!!I've been playing it in the car all week and it sounds superb! If you loved The Clash, get it!!!!

A great collection from my favourite group
A great collection that captures the clash at various stages of their live career. I am biased as the clash are my favourite band. I saw them live and even though that was many years ago I can still remember the excitement, energy and sheer joy. They were great live and these cds bring that across. You can tell by the last cd that the clash were nearing the end. My only criticism is that there are no UK concerts and nothing from their early years as a raw punk band. Worth buying.

Live & Raw!
All good gigs, especially Radio Clash From Tokyo (3rd disc). First Clash I've ever bought & has inspired me to buy the studio albums.

Great live band
A band I wished I'd seen. I saw Joe supporting the Who and he was great but these recordings tell me what I missed.

On face value looks a deal but.....
I seen this set when I was just browsing on amazon and it popped up on the recommended to you list.Not knowing that this set even existed I excitedly clicked and ordered.4 Radio broadcasts of one of the most influential bands ever for little over £12.Unfortunately the quality of audio is poor. Don't get me wrong its listenable but not great.I'd recommend this set only for the biggest of Clash fans.....but they will probably have it on bootleg already.
