This is the fourth and final album from Big Audio Dynamite. Mick Jones later formed B.A.D. II with all new members. This is one I had on cassette. I must have played it a couple times because many of these songs were familiar. At 59 minutes it&#8217;s long for a record. The tracks all flow together connected by samples and other found sounds. Many songs sound like later Clash songs. This is a fun listen with good songs like &#8220;Contact&#8221;, &#8220;Baby Don&#8217;t Apologize&#8221;, &#8220;London Bridge&#8221; and &#8220;Stalag 123&#8221; the best song on the record with a sample from the movie The Great Escape. Again a promo copy in like new condition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Still another one from 1989. This is the fourth and final album from Big Audio Dynamite.
