The really rather exciting up coming Clash Legacy Edition collection will feature five previously unreleased tracks. The three disc collection will feature a remastered version of 1979's 'London Calling', a DVD about the making of that album and a rarities disk called 'The Vanilla Tapes' which features 21 rehearsal sessions which were recently discovered on a tape by Mick Jones.
Those sessions include three tracks which later morphed into different songs - 'Working and Waiting' which became 'Clampdown', 'Paul's Tune' which was a forerunner of 'The Guns of Brixton' and 'Up-Toon' which was developed into 'The Right Profile'. There is also a cover of Bob Dylan's 'The Man in Me' and an early version of the album's title track with different lyrics and song structure...
