London Calling is the overrated darling of rock critics everywhere. Not only is it overrated, it's just not even that good. The Clash was better, f'chrissakes.

Superfly is a tour de force.

No contest.

Vote: Superfly

Big fan of both albums, but c'mon. Curtis is the muh fuckin man. A top 30 album for me no doubt.

Indeed. "Superfly" isn't even as good as "Curtis" or "Roots" but "Freddie's Dead" alone obliterates a filler strewn double album of white micks from London attempting to play reggae and jazz. Is there anything viler than crackerz doing reggae?

Vote : Superfly.

Superfly easy.

Curtis was a God amongst arangers.

The Clash, like Bob Marley, are better than their fanbase would point to though.

'White Riot' reminds me of documentaries about football hooligans.
