'The Prisoner,' the cover of ' by, 'City of the Dead,' and 'Armagideon Time' had all been UK from the period 1977-79, respectively of ',' ',' ',' and '.' 'Pressure Drop' is presented here in a remix by Bill Price.

At the time of release, this was the only record that featured the cover of the 'Time Is Tight' instrumental. ' was extremely rare in the UK.

Rather than re-issue the original the group recorded a new version for as 'Capital Radio Two.' 'Cheat' is from their UK but had been left off the US version. 'Bankrobber' had been a UK A-side.

'Robber Dub' was originally intended for the b-side of an unreleased 'Bankrobber' 12' dance club single. The two tracks appear here in a combined edit that is unique to Black Market Clash.

Cool Confusion 21. Mustapha Dance. I have both, but Black Market Clash is a dozen times stronger, imo (and is available as a Sony Music Special Edition cd in the U.S.). Listening to Robber Dub and Justice Tonight without hearing Bankrobber and Armagideon Time before them is like watching Godfather III without seeing the first two movies. Capital Radio Two is good, but Capital Radio One has that terrific ending with Joe shouting: Don't. Dial Don'ttouchthatdialDon'ttouchthatdialDon'ttouchthatdial! (that's priceless for me).

If you like punk, Cheat is about as raw and emotional as it gets. BMC is almost worth the price for that song alone.

Pressure Drop on Super Black Market has been sweetened with a piano. Nothing wrong with that, but I think the original version is truer to the Clash sound. Even though the original BMC ep was more or less thrown together as a collection of B sides and singles, it somehow holds together much better -- even after all these years. And I have no use at all for 1-2 Crush on You, Long Time Jerk, Mustapha Dance, First Night Back in London or Cool Confusion. They're mostly extended dance mixes of much better songs on Sandinista! The only reason to buy SBMC (again, imo) is for Gates of the West (one of their best songs, ever) and Groovy Times.
