Album Description
Available in: Country Icon Country Icon
Super Black Market Clash is a compilation album released by The Clash in 1993 that contains B-sides and rare tracks not available on their studio albums. It is a repackaging of the original 1980 Black Market Clash, which was a single 10" EP, containing only 9 songs. The man in the foreground of the front cover art is Don Letts, who worked with the Clash on several projects and later was a founding member of Big Audio Dynamite. Super Black Market Clash album does not contain the tracks "Capital Radio One", "Cheat", "Bankrobber/Robber Dub" or "Armagideon Time" found on the original Black Market Clash. At the time of re-release, "Capital Radio One", "Bankrobber" and "Armagideon Time" had recently been compiled on the compilations The Story of the Clash, Volume 1, and Clash on Broadway, and removing them did not affect the availability of the recordings. The album also replaces the version of "Pressure Drop" that appeared on the original Black Market Clash with the b-side mix, and "Justice Tonight/Kick It Over" appears in a longer version than that which appeared on Black Market Clash.

Super Black Market Clash does not fully compile the Clash's b-sides or even attempt to collect all their rarities. It does however contain important songs, such as three from The Cost of Living EP and several b-sides that were previously unavailable on CD including "The Cool Out" (a remix of "The Call Up") and "Long Time Jerk" (although in a shorter version than appeared as the b-side to "Rock the Casbah").

The Clash's catalog, including this the album, was remastered and re-released in January 2000. The artwork for the remaster corrects an error in the tracklisting on the original ("Pressure Drop" was listed as track 5 and "The Prisoner" as track 6 when they actually play in the opposite sequence). The original version of the revised artwork also introduced a new error by listing "Radio Clash" as "This Is Radio Clash" (the former song, which appears on the album, is the b-side to the latter song which does not), but this was corrected on later pressings.
