Our Take

The Jam's "The BBC Collection 77-78" is a delightful time capsule of the band's early career, showcasing their raw energy and infectious punk attitude. From the moment the needle hits the groove on "In the City," you can feel the power and passion of frontman Paul Weller as he belts out the lyrics with a fierce determination. The live recordings capture the band at their peak, with tight and punchy performances that perfectly capture the essence of the late 70s mod scene. Tracks like "All Around The World" and "The Modern World" are delivered with a ferocious intensity that is impossible to resist. The Jam's cover of "David Watts" is a highlight, with Weller's distinctive vocals giving the track a new lease of life. The sound quality on this collection is surprisingly good for live recordings of this era, with each instrument coming through clear and crisp. The driving basslines of Bruce Foxton and the snappy drumming of Rick Buckler provide a solid foundation for Weller's biting guitar riffs and soulful vocals. Overall, "The BBC Collection 77-78" is a must-have for any fan of The Jam or anyone looking to experience the energy and excitement of British punk rock in its prime. It's a reminder of a time when music was loud, brash, and unapologetically real. And in the immortal words of Paul Weller himself, "That's Entertainment."
