@@marktalbott3835 not completely unknown they weren't bothered about america they were too English like the kinks and small faces neither were big over there
@@marktalbott3835 From '79 (back in the days of living in the hick and humid hinterlands of the Ohio River Valley) onwards, they've been in my top-3 fave bands of all time.
I know of no other band EVER whose studio recordings are POP songs yet when played live are turned into ferocious ammunition. This, Going Underground, and so many other songs convey their absolute elegant rage. Does that even make sense?
Allready commented but .. these guys almost single handedly created a whole scene.. and i can never thank them enough . Its totally shaped my life "before and after" my kids lol.. once a mod n all that
Hard to get up and go to work after this. The power this trio exudes is unparalleled. Paul Weller was the greatest singer and songwriter of the last 40 years.....NO ONE even come close.
I used to have a.3song set on video, I think from OGWT - A Bomb, Billy Hunt , In The Street Today. Brilliant of course, I remember reading The Buzzcocks were listening backstage & shitting cause they were on next.
Where the streets are paved with blood With cataclysmic overtones Fear and hate linger in the air A strictly no-go deadly zone I don't know what I'm doing here 'Cause it's not my scene at all There's an A-bomb in Wardour Street They've called in the army They've called in the police too I'm stranded on the vortex floor My head's been kicked in And blood's started to pour Through the haze I can see my girl 15 geezers got her pinned to the door I try to reach her but fall back to the floor A-bomb in Wardour Street It's blown up the West End Now it's spreading through the city A-bomb in Wardour Street It's blown up the city Now it's spreading through the country Law and order take a turn for the worst In the shape of a size 10 boot Rape and murder throughout the land And they tell you that you're still a free man If this is freedom I don't understand 'Cause it seems like madness to me A-bomb in Wardour Street, hate bomb Hate bomb, hate bomb, hate bomb A Philistine nation of degradation And hate and war, there must be more It's doctor Martin's A P O C A L Y P S E Apocalypse!
Fantastic.... The Jam had it all.... Energy, skill, first class song writing, image. Certainly the best band to have graced our charts...ever!
Completely unknown in the United States
Now your talking

excellent point!
The Jam were not a band, they were a force of nature!
Yes they were
The Jam army
TRUTH
Absolute fuckin class. Best band imo. What a legacy!!
Foxton’s bass, always so good.
Superb sound he's getting from that Fender...
"Law and order takes a turn for the worst in the shape of a size 10 boot" fucking classic lyrics.

The coolest man on the planet and the best band in the world
THE best rendition, of one of my favourite Jam tunes...they were genius!
When you think you've seen every bit of film The Jam have ever made then this hidden jem pops up.
Great song 👍👍🎸🎸👍👍
Him and Pete Shelley some of the tightist songwriters. It's an art.
F-ing brilliant ✊

There seemed to be many great singer songwriters around then but he was certainly among the best.
You didn't mention guitarist, the coolest ever.
Totally fucking electric. Makes me proud to be a human being!
Great one of the best jam songs

Where the streets are paved with blood
With cataclysmic overtones
Fear and hate linger in the air
A strictly no-go deadly zone
I don't know what I'm doing here
'Cause it's not my scene at all
There's an A-bomb in Wardour Street
They've called in the army
They've called in the police too
I'm stranded on the vortex floor
My head's been kicked in
And blood's started to pour
Through the haze I can see my girl
15 geezers got her pinned to the door
I try to reach her but fall back to the floor
A-bomb in Wardour Street
It's blown up the West End
Now it's spreading through the city
A-bomb in Wardour Street
It's blown up the city
Now it's spreading through the country
Law and order take a turn for the worst
In the shape of a size 10 boot
Rape and murder throughout the land
And they tell you that you're still a free man
If this is freedom I don't understand
'Cause it seems like madness to me
A-bomb in Wardour Street, hate bomb
Hate bomb, hate bomb, hate bomb
A Philistine nation of degradation
And hate and war, there must be more
It's doctor Martin's A P O C A L Y P S E
Apocalypse!
"And hate and war? There must be more!"
Nice one mate...

Nothing like it
Foxton=Genius
Unreal bass player
Paul Weller trying to be Pete Townshend before he realised he was Paul Weller.
Brilliant, but camera work is shocking!
Fuck. There is nothing to say about. It speaks for itself.
Can I buy the weller guitar 😄
Yep. Holy Mother of God!!!
Day 101 Bday
There must be more! Where is it Ace?
At there pomp best in 79 .. they just knew they were the real deal .. totally sussed
Fridays? That show was Belgium tv? Are you sure about that?
Mod for it
Why is Paul dressed like Luke Skywalker?
I'm guessing that here Weller uses the old bit of driftwood before he scratched I am nobody on it.
Terrible guitar sound
