It's been 25 years since The Clash spat out their first stuttering chords, and London is a very different town to the one they set out to shake up and tear apart. Thank God, then, that their city and their legacy as the best British band since the Beatles has been captured so vividly on 'The Essential Clash' DVD.

Mostly directed by long-term collaborator and original punk-dread Don Letts, these vibrant, urgent videos span the band's entire career from their scratchy beginnings as young punks in West London to their final years as stadium fillers in North America.
