Comment:

London. It's not just the very cradle of English-language civilization, it's ground zero of a whole world of musical styles and sounds, from the sultry T. Rex-tacy of "Bang a Gong (Get It On)" to the Clash's punk rock call-to-arms "London Calling," to the cherry soda fizz of the Spice Girls' "Wannabe." The Rolling Stones know "You Can't Always Get What You Want," but if you download our London Basics, you can get all the glam-rock dazzlers, post-punk anthems, 'round-the-pub yarn-spinners, and Britpop bangers you need.
