The Clash were an English punk rock band that formed in 1976 as part of the original wave of British punk. Along with punk, their music incorporated elements of reggae, ska, dub, funk, rap, dance, and rockabilly. For most of their recording career, the Clash consisted of Joe Strummer (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), Mick Jones (lead guitar, vocals), Paul Simonon (bass guitar, vocals) and Nicky "Topper" Headon (drums, percussion). Headon left the group in 1982, and internal friction led to Jones's departure the following year. The group continued with new members, but finally disbanded in early 1986.

The Clash achieved commercial success in the United Kingdom with the release of their debut album, The Clash, in 1977. Their third album, London Calling, released in the UK in December 1979, brought them popularity in the United States when it came out there the following month. It was declared the best album of the 1980s a decade later by Rolling Stone magazine.

The Clash's politicised lyrics, musical experimentation and rebellious attitude had a far-reaching influence on rock, alternative rock in particular. They became widely referred to as "The Only Band That Matters", originally a promotional slogan introduced by the group's record label, CBS. In January 2003, the band—including original drummer Terry Chimes—were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In 2004, Rolling Stone ranked the Clash number 28 on their list of the 100 greatest artists of all time.

RPM RECORDS: VINYL OLDIES

The Vinyl record grading standards provided below will help you to better understand the condition.

GOLDMINE grading standards used.

MINT (M) Absolutely perfect in every way.

Near Mint (M-) A nearly perfect record.The record shows no obvious sign of wear. The vinyl or sleeve should have at the most a very minor defect.

Very Good Plus,Plus VG++ May have a tiny scuff,light scratch or insignificgant defect that prevents me from grading it Near mint

Very Good Plus (VG+) Worth 1/2 the value of near mint. A VG+ will show signs of being played and handled.The vinyl will show signs of surface wear it may have scuffs or light scratches that don't affect the listening experience. They may have slight warps that do not affect the sound.
The label or picture sleeve may have light ringwear or discoloration. Jacket or P.S. might have a cut-out or bent corner (dog-ear) or a slight seam split.
Very Good(VG) Many of the defects found in a VG record will be more pronounced in a VG record.Surface noise will be evident when playing,especially in soft passages and during a songs intro and fade as well as between the tracks.The noise should not overpower the music.
Groove wear will start to be noticeable,as will light scratches (deep enough to feel with a finger nail) that will affect the sound.
Labels may have writing,or tape or stickers (or their residue)attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves.A VG record should have no more than 2 or 3 of these problems at the same time.Regardless of defects found in VG vinyl it is an inexpensive alternative to a NM copy.A VG record is a desirable addition for many collectors.
Good (G), Good Plus (GD+) Will have any one or more of the above listed defects. Either one can be played on a turntable without skipping.It will have significant surface noise and scratches as well as visible groove wear.
A sleeve will have seam splits.Tape,writing,ring wear or other defects will be much more pronounced.
Poor (P),Fair (F) Can be cracked,warped won't play through without skipping or repeating.The picture sleeve is water damaged ,split on all 3 sides or heavily laden with wear or writing. These would only be sought after if they are extremely rare and held until a better copy comes along.
