Yeah the US Version gets rid of filler tunes like Cheat and Protex Blue (both with incredibly DUMB choruses) and replaces them with great singles. Was it right for them to screw with The Clash's original vision? No. But it still makes for a better album thirty years later.

from an artistic stand point, I'd say the UK version because it is set up the way the band intended it be.
After all, isn't that why the wrote Complete Control?, because they were tired
of that kind of nonsense.
Although, with that album you can't lose
