‘Youth explosion!’

The Jam have a new ’40th Anniversary’ box set out entitled 1977 that’s looking like a fantastic collection for hardcore fans.

I saw Paul Weller perform last night at LA’s Wiltern theater and the man still puts on an incredible show. In honor of this super-Jammy feeling – here’s the band performing on the Marc (Bolan) show in August 1977.
