It reminds me of the first girl I ever loved.still at least the songs not lost its appeal.magnificent to hear it after all this time.so many memories good and bad.
to martatff.in 1982 this masterpiece was already 2 yrs old.and old mod 67 if you cant think of any good songs on sound affects your either mutt and jeff or did not really like the jam.monday to me is one of the best jam tracks ever.from memory trck 3 is BUT IM DIFFFERENT NOW.good song.and 10 is scrape away which is the only average song on an otherwise complete album.get a fuckin grip
such a great song ..wonderful lyrics, people say Weller gets better with age, but you know, he was writing some bloody great stuff in his youth, he does get a lot of respect, but hes still underrated as a song writer , well I think so . hes wrote some wonderful songs over the last 30 odd years,songs that shaped my youth and more so now.. long may he continue, giving us quality music and gigs that he does.
'But with a sunshine girl like you, it's worth going through. I will never be embarressed about love again' Pure brilliant writing, beautiful lyrics from Weller - He is a God.
I remember borrowing this from a girl at school (Marie) it was her boyfriend (Robin's) I seem to recall,although I did buy my own! Just got the Deluxe CD edition.Still the best Jam album,followed by Setting Sons. I know All Mod Cons gets all the plaudits,and it is a great album,but Sound Affects was always better. Highlights...Monday,Dreamtime,Man in The Corner Shop. The flexipop version of Boy About Town is the best version though.Buy the new CD with instrumental Scrape Away and unedited Monday
@OldMod67 I dont rate this album at all very much ; in my view Setting Sons is a brilliant album, streets ahead of this with their best songs, arrangements and musicianship. Cant think of many good songs on here. The best for me are tracks 3 and 10. Start (single) is quite good as well
have you got the jam-extra's album? absolutley brillant, 26 acoustic little numbers fantastic stick it on repeat and turn it up and play up. weller4eva.
I couldn't understand this for ages coz I loathed Mondays but adored this song. Took me a while to get it but I loved this then & still do. Thanx for this. I'll never be embarassed about love again- a lyric I've lived by.
sound effects is the JAM at their peak! an album that has it all.
still vital & fresh today...all mod cons, setting sons, sound effects, the gift jesus the consistency of these four records is & always will be ahead of its time....the smiths prob only band to equal that consistency. wellers fave jam album & mine 2!
This is one of my fav The Jam Tracks....and the back cover which actually in my opinion should have been the FRONT cover is ace with text from Shelley...By The Glorious Morning Light pink sunrise... Oh Baby will i see you aaaaaagggaiinn (wail!) Ahhh Thank God I am a Mod!!! KerimMod4Ever
A few years ago, in one of its commercials, a company specializing in the filing of income tax returns used a version of The Beatles' "Taxman" which sounded almost exactly like this song. If you can believe it, the cover sounded much better. This is definitely my favorite song by The Jam. Outstanding entry, Alexm799!

Second best - Thick As Thieves.
3rd - To Be Someone (Didn't We Have A Nice Time)
4th - All Mod Cons.
5th - Carnation.
Best album? The Gift.
