Description
Sandinista! is the fourth studio album by English punk rock band the Clash. It was released on 12 December 1980 as a triple album containing 36 tracks, with 6 songs on each side.[6][7] Anticipating the "world music" trend of the 1980s, it features funk, reggae, jazz, gospel, rockabilly, folk, dub, rhythm and blues, calypso, disco, and rap.[6][7][8] For the first time, the band's traditional songwriting credits of Strummer and Jones were replaced by a generic credit to the Clash,[7] and the band agreed to a decrease in album royalties in order to release the 3-LP at a low price.[9][10]
The title refers to the Sandinistas in Nicaragua, and its catalogue number, 'FSLN1', refers to the abbreviation of the party's Spanish name, Frente Sandinista de Liberación Nacional.[8][9][11]
Sandinista! was voted best album of the year in the Pazz & Jop critics poll in The Village Voice, and was ranked number 404 on the Rolling Stone list of "The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time" in 2003.[8] Slant Magazine listed the album at number 85 on its "Best Albums of the 1980s" list in 2012.
