I loved Give 'Em Enough Rope. The production quality caused controversy, pissing off British journos as a dinosaur rock sellout. As if Mick ever hid his love of Mott or Bowie. Rancid or Green Day drew as much from this as London Calling and despite allegedly poor songwriting, it's pack with classics
