Anyone heard it? Thinking of picking it up, what's the pool of opinion say about it?

"Coma Girl" is a fantastic opening track/lead single. Maybe the best of Strummer's solo years. Unfortunately, the rest of the album, while good, sort of drags.

I think it's pretty solid, myself. "Arms Aloft" also rocks out.

"Coma Girl" makes me catch my breath every time I hear it, it's truly stunningly good.

Yeah, that's what I meant to say. I can't even think of a Clash song that's better than "Coma Girl."

"Redemption Song" got me teared up the first time I heard it.

The one after that, with the awful lyrics - "something-something and I'm wearing a vest!" - is good, too.
