Surprised The Vapors never really progressed. I liked Jimmy Jones too as well as Turning Japanese.
The Jam were amazing, anyone who saw them live was privileged to see an English band at their best, and Weller was articulate, angry and passionate.
The Style Council to me were a betrayal of all of the above

The Style Council to me were a betrayal of all of the above, although I can understand his weariness of being 'the voice' of disaffected youth at the time.
Since then I have liked some of his songs, but I don't have the musical history knowledge or history to appreciate them from a technical or muso perspective.
A best of is something that I would change a dozen times, but here goes...
When You're Young
Funeral Pyre
That's Entertainment
...but it will change quickly.
Turning Japanese was the single at the time I think, but I don't think they dd anything ese of note, really.
A question about his recording career:
'Batman Theme' by The Jam - why?!
I think it was possibly an homage to The Kinks who released a live version of it [live at Kelvin Hall]. The Jam used to perform it live as well.
