	London Calling (song) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		"London Calling" by The Clash, from London Calling, 1979.
		The line "London is drowning/And I live by the river" comes from concerns that if the River Thames flooded, most of central London would drown, something that led to the construction of the Thames Barrier.
		"London Calling" was released as the only single in the UK from the album and reached #11 in the charts in December 1979.

		In January 2000, London Calling, along with the rest of the Clash's catalog was remastered and re-released.

	London's Calling \| Food & Wine (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		But for Michael London, to serve bread means not only to bake it and to sell it—even, as in the recipes that follow, to use it in bread pudding and other dishes—but also to be its servant.
		London began to articulate his philosophy of baking: about using organic grains (or, better still, grains grown by the environmentally and spirituallyconscious farming method known as Biodynamics); about doing everything, except the mixing, by hand; about making breads that express the genius loci, because bread should contain the spirit of the place where it's made.
		London decided there was only one man in the world who could build his dream oven: Ernst Heuft, a fifth-generation oven builder originally from Bell, the German village known as Backofenbauer Dorf ("bake-oven builder's town").

	Amazon.com: London Calling: Music: The Clash (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The Clash's London Calling is with out a doubt one of the all time best albums ever made, It's more then a punk, rock, regea, or ska album it's a melting pot for all that is good in those genras of music.
		"London Calling" manages the rare feat of being everything to everyone; there are an almost maniacal variety of musical genres been played off of here, and not a single one is brought off in anything less than triumphant fashion.
		With "London Calling" the cornerstone of their legacy, I don't see any reason why the Clash can't be considered just as relevant and timeless as any of those bands, and this album proves you don't have to like raw, dirty, two chord punk rock snottiness to appreciate what the Clash have to offer.

		The blasts that hit central London today struck a city with vast experience in dealing with terror, its aftermath, and the issues underneath it.
		The BBC Online site in general scored high marks for innovation and audience participation, teaching the important lesson that most people don't want to be journalists, but to be heard, and that those who listen will win their loyalty.

	SALON: The Clash
		The title track began with a comically animated guitar-and-bass introduction that quickly lost its sense of humor; it was followed by a dizzying song cycle that remains giddy and fractious to this day.
		"London Calling" was personal and political, loud and soft; it was made up of rockabilly and pop, reggae and ballads, indignation and romance.
		"London Calling" was the first sprawling, extravagant, unquestionably great punk record.

		Londoners don't suffer the overt racial tensions to be found in Los Angeles, Paris or Berlin.
		Within a few years of the big bang, London was fixed in the world's imagination as a place of opportunity, where the elite can pick up eye-popping bonuses or seven-figure salaries that can't be matched outside New York.

	The Clash: London Calling: 25th Anniversary Legacy Edition: Pitchfork Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The 25th anniversary reissue of The Clash's London Calling is satisfyingly thick and protected by a thin plastic sleeve.
		As always, London Calling's title track holds steady as the record's cosmic lynchpin: Horrifyingly apocalyptic, "London Calling" is riddled with weird werewolf howls and big, prophetic hollers, Mick Jones' punchy guitar bursts tapping little nails into our skulls, pushing hard for total lunacy.
		As an instruction manual, the 25th anniversary edition of London Calling offers up bits of helpful, ordinary wisdom (he who fucks nuns will later join the church, no one gets their shit for free-- and "Balls to you, big daddy!" is an infallible exit line), but the album's biggest lesson is still spiritual.

		London won a two-way fight with Paris by 54 votes to 50 at the IOC meeting in Singapore, after bids from Moscow, New York and Madrid were eliminated.
		Paris was considered the front-runner for much of the campaign, and was highly rated in the initial evaluation and also by the inspectors after their visits earlier in the year.
		London also called on England captain David Beckham and a galaxy of Olympic and Paralympic medallists as ambassadors, while footballers Laurent Blanc and Zinedine Zidane were among those backing the Paris bid.

		If your mother tongue is English, and you loved stories as much as I did as a child, then London is the city of your imagination, of Mary Poppins and David Copperfield, of London-bridge-is-falling-down and the prince and the pauper.

	Guardian Unlimited Books \| By genre \| Observer review: London Calling by Sukhdev Sandhu
		London is evolving into a different country to the rest of Britain.
		Sandhu's belated contribution focuses on the relationship between fl writers and London, the capital of Empire, and then, as now, a magnet for the curiosities of its multiracial subjects around the globe.
		He saw London 'not just as a place to live in or to make money, but as a set of values, a tone of voice,' says Sandhu.

		London of course is a different story with tons of my country mates living here and having the same desire for Polish herrings, pickled cucumbers and mushrooms and mouth-watering sausages and all other good stuff.
		There are plenty of Polish shops (called here mainly Polish delicatessen) and even Indians running corner shops picked up the business and sell Polish juices and gherkins between their chutneys and masalas.
		Yesterday was another example of her bad luck: she was due to fly to London to visit me and my brother and nasty fog in Krakow changed those plans.

	The Clash: London Calling: 25th Anniversary Legacy Edition - PopMatters Music Review
		In May and June of 1979, before they headed to London's Wessex Studios to record the album with producer Guy Stevens, the band holed themselves up in a former rubber factory in Pimlico, London, called "Vanilla" to fine-tune their new songs and tighten up as a band.
		Most surprising is the rehearsal version of "London Calling", and if ever there was proof of just how valuable a producer Guy Stevens was, it's on this track.
		Overall, London Calling: 25th Anniversary Legacy Edition is a terrific package; like Pennie Smith's now legendary cover shot, The Clash caught lightning in a bottle in 1979, and a quarter century later, the electricity is more palpable than ever.

		However, this wasn't drunken dancing: though the bar was open and there was evidence on the abandoned tables and chairs that beers had indeed been imbibed, the spritely swing dancing seemed to be induced mainly by the excellent live music provided by the ten-piece Sugar Ray Ford Orchestra.

		Horrific as the death toll was from the terrorist attacks on London's transportation system, it does not begin to measure the impact of those attacks on Londoners and indeed all of Europe.
		In the wake of the terrorist bombs, Londoners showed some of same stoic resolve for which they became justly famous during the Nazi aerial bombardment.
		And even these will recieve adulation and applause for their actions and will know how good they are and realize that if they start their own organization they will be top of their pile and "win" if only for a short while.

		Two years ago, before the charge began, she argued that the successful implementation of the zone might be achievement enough for a first term and she still holds to that.

		When it's brilliant it's up there with the very best - "london calling" (obviously), "spanish bombs" (why wasnt this on essential clash?), "the guns of brixton", the extremely catchy "koka kola", "the card cheat" and the outstanding but very un-punk-like "train in vain".
		London Calling is one of the greatest double albums ever, from the cover shot of Paul Simenon destroying his bass and the Pink and Green lettering shamelessly stolen from Elvis Presleys first album to the infectious Bo Diddley groove of "Hateful".
		Most importantly for a punk record, London Calling never gets overly pretentious or self-congratulatory (as you often got the impression the Sex Pistols were), and while some of the lyrics do have a socio-political side to them the music always comes first.
