‘London Calling’ — The Clash
While going through personal difficulties and being concerned about world issues, The Clash created one of their most renowned songs. They didn’t have any management at the time, but they did have a lot of debt. This was the only single from the eponymous album to be released in the United Kingdom. It peaked at No. 11 on the charts in 1980, making them the highest-charting single band until “Should I Stay or Should I Go” a decade later.
