The Jam

[The Modfather]

OK if you say so yada yada Foxton & Buckler must have been thinking WTF?! while Weller's barrow boy dad must have been rubbing his sweaty palms together at the thought of all that solo artist royalties coming his way.

I am sure the royalty cheques would have been even higher if he had kept milking The Jam rather than splitting up the band at there height in order to release an album of predominantly jazz instrumentals.

Lovely guy John, great to chat with, a good man who loved watching his son at gigs...pathetic, unfounded, cheap shot on someone no longer with us

At the final gig in 82, Bruce fizzed his plectrum into the crowd, straight into my mates eye! He was quick enough to catch it & still has to this day

Down in the tube-station at Midnight......

"They smelled of pubs, and Wormwood Scrubs, and too many right wing meetings..."

Bloody magic....

Magnificent!!!

What is your favourite track?Mine has changed many times over the years but right now it is:

Mine just changed today, as I had a loud session on the way home. Its now Thick as Thieves if only for the over laying verse
'But something came along that changes our minds
I don't know what and I don't know why
But we seemed to grow up in a flash of time
While we watched our ideals helplessly unwind

Genius

Going to stick this on at work. A masterpiece that makes me so nostalgic
