Actually, I don't see Sandinista as a true punk album either. I always think of punk as basically great three chord rock. The British perfected it (Sex Pistols, Damned, early Clash, etc.) and I'd put the Ramones in that category too. By the time the Clash came to record London Calling, they began to delve into different genres, notably reggae, and I think they lost some of their punk edge in the process.
Still, a great band though.
