The Clash - London Calling (Top 500 Countdown Update)

Hmm, I don't get it. It's number 8 on the Rolling Stone countdown and I wouldn't put it in the top 500 at all. I just don't get The Clash and again I'm thinking I must be missing something but don't get what it is that I'm missing. There are a few good songs with catchy beats. One thing I like so much about Big Audio Dynamite's first album is that it has a finished sound, where much of this album seems thrown together and unfinished. Personally I would skip it.
