Description:
THE CLASH LIVE: REVOLUTION ROCK is an exciting new documentary film directed by long-time Clash collaborator and Grammy-winning producer Don Letts (Westway To The World) that chronicles the electric live performances of one of the most influential bands to emerge from the UK.

Rating:  - DO IT NOW
This is a killer DVD even tho most of it already available. The naration/no-naration option is very welcome. The naration is short and un-abtrusive. If you have 1 CLASH dvd this - should be it. If you have 1 music dvd- this should be it. If you 1 dvd - this should be it.
Rating:  - What can you do?
All I can say is that this is an infuriating DVD because I think it was produced incompetently, with no regard for true fans of Clash music but at the same time has some rare footage and complete songs that are hard to turn down. Arrrgghh! Somebody please re-release this collection properly!
Rating: - Well Intentioned, But...

1 - Almost all of the clips are available elsewhere (there's nothing really new)
2 - Don Letts has the cheek to include his own Tommy Gun clip which is lip-sync video not a live track
3 - The voice-over is patronizing, dumb and annoying.
