L’importanza del lascito musicale della gloriosa punk-rock band inglese è un fatto conclamato. Dall’archivio dei Clash spunta adesso altro materiale raro in tre cd che, insieme alla loro discografia ufficiale rimasterizzata, andrà a comporre il box–set, “Sound System“, atteso nelle rivendite, il prossimo 9 Settembre.
Al suo interno vi saranno pure alcune fanzine d’epoca del gruppo ed una commissionata per l’occasione, un dvd con filmati dei registi Julian Temple e Don Letts ed altre memorabilia.
La parte musicale del progetto è stata curata dal chitarrista/cantante Mick Jones, mentre la veste grafica è stata realizzata dal bassista Paul Simonon. Lo stesso giorno sarà edita anche una compilation in due cd, “The Clash Hits Back”, sorta di bignami del cofanetto.
