To this day, the Jam remain my favorite band. For better or for worse, Weller moved on. That was his right. But that also highlights for me the obvious: that Paul Weller wrote his best songs and realized his creative peak while he was with Bruce Foxton and Rick Buckler.

The Jam's music left a legacy. Choose not to knock either Weller or the Foxton/Buckler side. Respect them both (and Mr. Hastings) and still enjoy the music.

@mtraner2004 "No disrespect to the lead singer of From The Jam, but he isnt Weller" not the sharpest tool in the box are you mate.

Love the clarity of the lyrics in this. It not Weller but this is certainly acceptable.

[mtraner2004]

No disrespect to the lead singer of From The Jam, but he isnt Weller, and he certainly doesnt have Wellers voice and Im sure he would tell you this. Lets not forget Weller is only person who made up the Jam. Rick and Bruce each provided something in thier own rights and still do that when they play for thier new band. Its no reason to dis the Weller or From the Jam. Take the positives from this, we can hear Wellers new stuff and we can still hear The Jams old stuff. Best of both worlds.

@salvadory Why not set it in pea shingle? then you can change your mind later if you like. 

[salvadory]

@mrspester not as funny or sad as 50+ men playing 30 year old youth anthems! my memories of the jam are set in stone when it mattered- !

[mrspester]

@salvadory I give up, your last sentence was way funnier than my original joke.

[salvadory]

@mrspester do you know him or me? shitting on your friends maybe wrong but who says bruce and rick were his friends- they were bandmates- ask most bands- most of them arent friends at all- john L loathed paul mccartney for most of their career- is lennon a dick too- as far as champaigne socialism weller dropped his politics long ago- while he was in the jam he lived up to them- now he doesnt- but he isnt singing about it now -  ive moved on - i dont need heros now that im my own man

@salvadory I cant believe it took 3 years for someone to bite! I like most of Wellers music, he's a talented artist, I just dont rate him as a person. Champagne socialism and shitting on your friends dont earn cred in my book. Obviously they do in yours. Set that in stone.
