Okay, this is corny, but...I actually got tears in my eyes as I was watching this for the first time. Because it is just that good.

Holy cow! I remeber seeing this original broadcast as a teen. The video is awesome quality. Looks even beter than I remembered. Cheers!
PS The Jam are in fine form here. Weller leaving his Kinks phase & entering his Beatles phase.

I love both your videos of the Jam on Fridays. The video quality is excellent, how did you manage to obtain copies so clear from a show broadcast in 1980?
Thanks,
PG

I got this off a compilation DVD from a torrent on dimeadozen. Someone had taped these performances on their VHS deck way back in the late 70's and early 80's. They held onto the tapes and eventually did a transfer onto DVD a few years ago, so it's really thanks to them. I mainly got it for the Devo performances, but The Jam is quite great and noticed the videos on youtube were of inferior quality so I decided fans could rejoice with these higher quality clips.

Thanks much for your informative and thoughtful response. I didn't realize VCRs could record with fidelity this good. At least one fan has rejoiced that you posted the Jam Fridays videos :-), the Jam played very well in them. Thanks for posting the vids.
