"Sandinista!" is the fourth studio album by The Clash. It was released as a triple album containing 36 tracks, 6 songs on each side. "Sandinista!" anticipated the world music trend of the 1980s, featuring a wide variety of musical styles including funk, reggaie, jazz, gospel, rockabilly, folk, dub, rhythm and blues, clypso, and rap.

The album was recorded during most of 1980 in London, Manchester, Jamaica, and New York. It was produced by The Clash and recorded and mixed by Bill Price. It was well-received by critics, with some even comparing it to the Beatles' White Album. It won several "best of the year" critics polls in 1981, and was voted the best albumn of the year in The Village Voice's Pazz & Jop critics poll.

The Clash sounded like they could do anything on London Calling. For its triple-album follow-up, Sandinista!, they tried to do everything, adding dub, rap, gospel, and even children's choruses to the punk, reggae, R&B, and roots rock they already were playing. Instead of presenting a band with a far-reaching vision, like London Calling did, Sandinista! plays as a messy, confused jumble, which means that its numerous virtues are easy to ignore. Amid all the dub experiments, backward tracks, unfinished songs, and instrumentals, there are a number of classic Clash songs that rank among the band's best, including "Police on My Back," "The Call Up," "Somebody Got Murdered," "Charlie Don't Surf," "Hitsville U.K.," and "Lightning Strikes (Not Once but Twice)," yet it's difficult for anyone but the most dedicated listeners to find them. A few of the failed ideas were worth exploring, but even more – like the children's choir version of "Career Opportunities" or the Tymon Dogg song "Lose This Skin" – weren't even worth pursuing. As the cliché says, there's a great single album within these three records, and those songs make Sandinista! worthwhile. Nevertheless, its sloppy attack is disheartening after the tour de force of London Calling and the focused aggression of The Clash.
