Safe European Home - Remastered Lyrics: 10. By Scott Rowley February 19, 2016 The accepted wisdom on Give Em Enough Rope is that CBS brought in a big-name American producer – a guy from one of those dinosaur rock bands they so despised – in an attempt to turn them into Journey or Toto. In fact, producer Sandy Pearlman was no real big name. In the United States, the Clash's debut studio album was released one year after Give 'Em Enough Rope, making it their second release in the US.

The album art was designed by Gene Greif, based on an old 1950’s postcard titled “End of the Trail” that was photographed by Adrian Atwater, and featured cowboy Wallace Irving Robertson. Here is the original postcard manufactured by Desert Supply Inc. Las Vegas, NV…
Joe Strummer and Mick Jones had come across a painting titled “End of the Trail for Capitalism” by Berkeley artist Hugh Brown on display at San Francisco’s punk rock hangout Mabuhay Gardens. I am assuming Brown made the painting and Greif put it all together for the album cover and the back cover.
Believe it or not you can find the original postcard for sale on ebay and other websites for a few dollars. I am gonna pick one of these up for sure..
