Greatest band ever, and the best singer / songwriter this country has produced.

The Jam were fine - got most of their LPs (yes, and still got the vinyl) - it's what they've done since that's the shit - allso in my opinion. Soz ............No it wasn't, apart from a couple of good toons they were shit, soz just my opinion.

The news hit me really hard at the time. They were "my" band, the one I identified with completely as a 13-year-old. Was too young to get into the Brighton Centre for the farewell gig although mods from my school said they were going anyway, to hang around by the stage door and hear whatever they could.
Looking back it was probably the right decision by Weller. There was no need for a seventh album.

I guess you must be referring to their cover of 'David Watts'.

The amount of times I've drifted off to sleep reciting 'Fa fa fa fa fa, fa fa fa' wondering what the inspiration for such eloquence was.

From The Jam are at the Btn Centre 03 December, although £37 is a bit steep imho, even though they've randomly thrown in Big Country too, and possibly Buzzcocks.

Most would have settled for 'la, la, la, la' or 'da, da, da, da', but Ray is a genius.

And he's released about 400 albums of that turgid shite. (advance apologies to the middle of the roaders on here who lap it up)

They were pretty good. I still tap a toe or two when Going Underground comes on the radio.
