Great interview ! Bruce is a fantastic player, and his vocal harmonies really helped put The Jam so far ahead of most bands back then. Cheers.

Yeah the jam are such an awesome band! They represent exactly what kick arse british punk music is all about, I would put them up there as my top 5 favourite punk bands as well as The Clash, The Sex Pistols, The Undertones and The Ramones

Loved The Jam love ftj. Love foxton & hastings. Bruce was my hero as a young teenager, loved everything about him. Met him a couple of times, they say never meet your heroes, but i wasnt disapointed.😊

Great interview I’m now at the age where I really enjoy listening to Bruce talking ❤and to be fair to Bruce he didn’t get the opportunity or maybe the time to write more songs 😎in other words great songwriter given enough time

Did Bruce used to live in Hebden Bridge, I used to see a guy who looked his spitting double drinking in The Upper George Hotel in Halifax?

'Tell Russell that' . Why? Russell didn't write it. Completely wrong about Wham Rap too. Bruce did not play on it. He did play on a George demo that never saw the light of day
