For their second album, the Clash worked with the American hard rock producer Sandy Pearlman, best-known for his work with Blue Öyster Cult and the Dictators. The teaming was quite controversial within the punk community, and the sound of Give 'Em Enough Rope is considerably cleaner, yet the more direct sound hardly tamed the Clash. While the record doesn't burn with the same intense, amateurish energy of The Clash, it does have a big, forceful sound that is nearly as powerful. What keeps Give 'Em Enough Rope from being a classic is its slightly inconsistent material. Many of the songs are outright classics, particularly the first half of the record ("Safe European Home," "English Civil War," "Tommy Gun," "Julie's Been Working for the Drug Squad") and "Stay Free," but the group loses some momentum toward the end of the record. Even with such flaws, Give 'Em Enough Rope ranks as one of the strongest albums of the punk era. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Sensing the emollient rattle of punk was an artistic dead end, the Clash took an abrupt volte-face and invited American Sandy Pearlman to produce their second album. Respected for his work with Blue Oyster Cult and the Dictators, Pearlman introduced a sheen that disturbed purists but introduced the Clash to a wider audience. The clear sound brought a new emphasis to the quartet's internal interplay and allowed the material to stand up in its own right. GIVE EM ENOUGH ROPE contains several of the band's most popular songs, which range from the defiant "Tommy Gun" to the sensitive "Stay Free," a contrast confirming the Clash's wider musical ambitions.Q (5/02 SE, p.135) - Included in Q's "100 Best Punk Albums".
Q (12/99, pp.152-3) - 5 stars out of 5 - "...no more punk than Blondie...[it] shined of quality....their drumming problems were over with the arrival of jazz-trained [Topper] Headon..."

Give 'Em Enough Rope
$45.99
Purple's first live album without keyboardist/founder Jon Lord finds the band returning to Montreux for the festival's 40th anniversary in 2006. It's a spirited affair and even though this single-disc CD is edited down by about a third from the DVD of the same show, available separately, it's still a rousing document from these hard working hard rockers. Purple was touring behind its new album at the time, 2006's Rapture of the Deep, and three of its songs are featured here, all lumped together in the middle of the set. The tunes ("The Wrong Man," "Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye" and the title track) have a prog/jazz feel to them, perhaps influenced by guitarist Steve Morse who comes from that background with his work for Kansas and the Dixie Dregs. While none of them are likely to be future classics, it does push Purple's boundaries in a logical direction without losing the guitar/organ interplay so integral to the sound. Singer Ian Gillan can't quite navigate some of the high notes on the new additions or the hits that dominate the disc's playing time like he used to. But otherwise Purple sounds tight and committed despite having played much of this music on nearly every show for three decades. The bluesy "When a Blind Man Cries," somewhat of a rarity originally recorded in the Machine Head days, makes an appearance just before the closing batch of evergreens that wrap up the concert. Don Airey gets a solo spot, similar to Rick Wakeman's in Yes shows, to feature his skills on various keyboards. In five minutes he shifts from prog to boogie woogie to classical and jazz with uncanny grace, although ...
