Train in Vain (Stand By Me)/ London Calling

This is a new, unplayed promo copy, in its original factory sleeve. The B side—title from the awesome double album\r\nof the same name—is a dark but eminently danceable punk/grunge\r\ntune, the polar opposite of the bright and catchy A side, the group's first U.S. hit. It was the B side that Marsh included in his 1001 greatest singles list. The A side did appear on London Calling, but you wouldn't know it from the record's song lists: The group hid it as an uncredited, unlisted track at the end of the last of the album's four sides. Note: The labels on this copy have some "bubbling" (doesn't show up well in the scan).
