Product Overview
Produced by The Clash’s resident innovator, Mick Jones, and even boasting a vocal cameo from Kate Moss, Down In Albion evokes the sights and smells of its era yet also possesses a forward-looking perspective which creates a perpetually relevant body of work that both charts and soothes the human condition.
Accompanying the album’s original 16 tracks, the anniversary edition includes five carefully chosen songs from the band’s archives, with several – despite bootleg fame amongst the band’s fanbase – getting their first official release.
Gang Of Gin and 352 Days were both recorded around the album and were considered as possible b-sides but never officially released, while Why Did You Break My Heart/Piracy did feature on the flip side of the single release of Albion.
Do You Know Me and My Darling Clementine are both taken from the fan favourite session for Zane Lowe’s BBC Radio 1 show, which was recorded in October 2004 and helped to lay the creative foundations for Down In Albion.
