The Clash. Introduction by Paul Du NoyerSt Martin's Press. 1997.

This liitle (approx 4" x 6") hardcover is a part of the "Modern Icons" series brought to you by Richard Branson's Virgin Publishing. Other artists in the series include Bob Marley, Kiss, and Led Zepplin. Basicly, these are impulse buy items targeted at middle class disposable incom. You've got your introduction, pros and cons, timeline, discography, key players, quotes and reviews and brief anlysis. The production is slick and the end result is totally forgetable. Somebody in the marketing department at Virgin is running on empty. Vibrant color photos and the F-word are some of the few nice surprises in an otherwise sterile presentation. I'm sure the band had nothing to do with it. This book is perfect for stealing or ignoring. Wait for it to turn up later on the discount tables at Barnes and Noble, etc.

94 pages Hardcover. $9.95.
