The Clash - Complete Control

This track, a marvellous noise, came on the iPod amidst some Lee Perry dub tunes. But the difference between the two is incredible. What exactly did Lee Perry do when producing The Clash tune? I've heard that the band remixed it afterwards taking away some of the Lee Perry sound making it sound more like the tinny punk of their debut. But I've also heard he was trying to do it as punk as he could.

I'd love to hear it really sounding like Lee Perry producing The Clash!

Oh and also on the iPod, the remaster of The Clash's first album. Wow. That really gave it some OOMMMPHHH.
