Lucky enough to see The Jam on many occasions, and never saw them deliver anything other than a great gig. They always used to close the show with this one, leaving us gasping for air before they came back on for the encores.
This, I believe, is very close to being their finest song and always reminds me of the hundreds of tube trains I've taken on London's famous underground network. Some of them at midnight.
Nice clip. I would love to see Paul Weller in action. What do you think of Style Council? Always thought "Internationalist" was an insanely catchy tune.
ReplyDeleteThanks, JD. To be honest, I gave Style Council pretty short shrift, such was my disappointment when The Jam split. My loss, I'm sure. To be fair, Weller has penned some pretty nifty stuff in SC from what I've listened to.
