Remember passing by on the way to a guitar shop and thinking what's going on here? Some time later saw them on ToTP and remembered they were the same band. The Jam such a great band and fantastic live.
+Chris Jones (cj93070) The Clash were indeed great but The Jam were more honest and far less pretentious. Plus The Clash ruined themselves by making that shitty Cut The Crap album. An album that history has conveniently erased. And what about The Clash constantly getting dressed up in military gear? And if they weren't dressed like my childhood Action Man dolls then they were doing a Marlon Brando in The Wild Ones thing. Anyway, it's probably a bit daft to fight over who was the better band - both groups made lots of brilliant records that people will still be listening to their recordings long after everyone currently writing on this page is long gone.
I was in london summer 76 . I bought my first electric guitar in Shaftsbury avenue, i saw my first punk , i bought Eater the album ... I was 16 . the debut of good times in rock n roll... but i never saw the Jam..
6k? Ha, yer, that's what Weller told Foxton and Buckler, and it had to last them. They got well suspicious though when he turned up with a cochall of 360s, Ben Sherman's and Vox'AC90s wedged onto the roof-rack of his bollock new union jack bubble car.
punky weller was getting into tamla and northern stuff at the same time..there on road dj was big on the hitsville vinyl..so the change into more melody then the council stuff...superb soul boy is our weller
This is confusing! I think that image of the market is of Berwick Street market, which is a long way away from Newport Court. I've never heard of a place called Soho Market. I'm not sure the soundtrack goes with the photos, it doesn't seem right. I'm not sure this is 1976, maybe the very end of 1976 or early 1977? The image of Joe doesn't seem like I remember him in 1976. Paul's hair looks too long for 1976, but the flared suit trousers fit the time.
Soho market is a tiny market at the top of rupert street. It consisted of about 6 stalls. Bottom of berwick street market through walkers court and into rupert street. 😀
@@sydfloyd8354 So true, quite similar to John Lennon in that regard. I believe Strummer did eventually acknowledge Paul Weller's talent by the early 80's but yeah, there must've been some initial resentment/jealousy that a young lad (at the age of 18, then) could really deliver. Btw, he couldn't stand Generation X.

Superb to hear this. Thanks for posting. The Jam were a fantastic band.
brilliant slice of history. hadnt seen this before. thank you!

The Jam were the best.
Paul Desca
The Clash were a lot better than the Jam
+Chris Jones (cj93070) "a lot better"? You say it as if it were a fact.

+Paul Desca Still are the best band ever
Clash got into slogans & rock cliches ( thanks to Mick Jones ) - The Jam never did .
Timeless!!
I want to hear the whole gig , this was awesome .
Nicely done sir, I eagerly await the holographic version.

Nicely done, this. Cheers!
Great stuff, as already said, shame ther is no footage. Foxton with a Rickenbacker copy, early days and before the Polydor 12,000 advance.
£6k

Ibanaze i think . think they got sued by rickenbacker
*Vox AC30s
I see a picture of Strummer, but not in the crowd...
Awesome!!!
Just great!!!
Great to see

Love this
I don't think the sound is from this, just the photos.
grandiii!!
Brice Foxton looks like David Cassidy in the pix. LOL.
...and Weller never slowed down.
The audio is from the 100 Club, not Soho. Facts first.
quality....the intense speed like vocals ace.
Used to go there in the 70s mod for it 😂
Wow thats some punk energy .

But I've been told there was a big contrast between 1st half of 76 and 2nd half. Punk started to emerge spring or mainly summer

October that year.
Joe strummer at 0.56 ?
smirking.
@@duffbaker9554 Yet another - wrong - snap decision he made. Never did stop to think, that one.....

And I think that behind him is Mick Jones!
I met Joe after a gig , he was lovely and spoke really highly of Weller .
igual sonaban yiiiihaaaa JAKKAK
Boy, they really slowed this one down! (ha!)
Huh
