Wow, outside of Tom Petty (who I admit is a brilliant songwriter even if I find his music a little dull), that list is shite.

Some of their B sides are cool, but all of their "hits" on the radio, like "Rock the Casbah", are pretty damn lame.

Agree with London Calling, not so much with Sandanista.

Their earlier stuff rocked, too.
