IT'S 2024 and The Jam sounds so tight in their last TV gig, This is what it was all about TIMELESS
Was 14 when I first came across The Jam. Approaching 60 still listening. Says it all
Remember rushing home in time to watch what we all knew would be the last time we'd ever see them on TV.
Still a bittersweet watch, even all these years later. They are still my go-to listen. Best band in the f***ing world.
Yes they were very good
Weller never had a good a bassist as Bruce Foxton again. His distinctive and melodic bass lines were a huge part of The Jam.
Weller treated Bruce and Rick rather badly in the way it ended.
I wouldn’t just say Weller treated Bruce and Rick badly towards the end, I’d say he treated them badly throughout The Jam’s history.
He always took credit for being the main one who wrote the words and music of the Jam’s songs. But it’s well known that Bruce and Rick contributed to a lot of them, take Pretty Green for instance, that song started out with just Bruce and Rick jamming in the studio together.
Weller has even said himself that a lot of their music were built around the 3 of them just jamming around, but it alway ended up with Weller getting the credit for any song the came from it.
But I suppose that’s what happens having your father as manager.
@@adjam7782 The music biz, like so many others, can be a nasty business.
@@adjam7782 Rubbish, Weller made demo's for nearly all of the songs and would then bring them in and they would build up the song from there. There were a few occasions where they kicked ideas about. That's exactly how most band's work, look at the Smiths, Morrissey and Marr, wrote the music and lyrics, but Rourke and Joyce created the bass and drum parts. Doesn't mean they wrote the songs, but they of course added to them.
You can't replace him.
Didn't even know how blessed I was to have lived this generation, overloaded with brilliant music. My heart felt thanks to all those fantastic musicians for all you gave me and still do. ❤️
I was there in the studio audience… the cameras went off at the end of the live broadcast and the production crew held up signs for the band to see saying ‘We’re off air”. But… they continued playing for three more songs, just for the TV audience!! The atmosphere was great… They did David Watts as the final song. A great memory.
Were you there for other episodes of the show in 1982/83?
@@ajs41 Yes, I went to all the shows for about 2 years.. I was studying at the Poly and a group of us got ‘Punter’s Passes’ as we were design students and they reckoned we’d be cool n’ hip and make for a good regular audience. Saw some great bands and artists!
@@grahamwood6902 Thanks for the reply! Someone posted all the early episodes of The Tube on RUclips a couple of years ago, but then they disappeared. Did you see any of them? I managed to watch the first 25 episodes or so. Love it. I was only about 3 or 4 at the time, but I prefer that style of music. At the moment I'm particularly fond of Set The Tone, the Glasgow dance/funksters who didn't quite make it. They were on some of the early episodes.
@@ajs41 I can still remember the smell of the dry ice they used for the ‘smoky stage look’, and we’d go to the pub across the road afterwards, and often the tv crew and artists would be there too. So many great memories, and great music! It was a great era. Highlights: The Pogues, Propaganda, Herbie Hancock, Madness, Edwin Starr, Heaven 17, REM (in their first ever performance outside of the US), The Smiths.. there were so many!
You lucky frcker,,,,, please, more stories…i met the proclaimers once, lovely ❤❤
Vastly underrated. One of the best bands ever
They have never been underrated, don't be stupid
Under rated? Don’t think so. They will go down in British music folklore like The Beatles.
@Paratus7 if you read my statement I said underrated, ie not valued highly enough, vastly underrated not overrated
@@petebuck9889 but they are valued highly and definitely not underrated. In your opinion, who underrates them?
I'm beginning to wonder if the seemingly endless list of people here on RUclips who constantly say such and such are 'underrated' actually know what the word 'underrated' means.
We had this! The young un’s today have Ed Bloody Sheeran 😂
It's crazy that there was a time that a band that made music like this could be absolutely huge, like there are two #1 singles just in this performance. So sad how far we've fallen.
In 8th grade (1981) I saw The Jam 3 nights in a row in Pasadena, California. The crowd went nuts. Me included. Still listening at 56. ❤❤
Wow, so jealous!
Perkins Palace I was there to. AMAZING
@JeffreyPratt-bg9vu you from Los Angeles? My dad was a DJ at KROQ at that time. I virtually lived at Perkins! ❤
Still listening at 55 myself, seen them 5 times and once in '81 I think it was wagged school to see soundcheck at Newcastle City Hall and got all autographs afterwards.
Lucky bastard YOU 😆💜😎🙃💜
i think i saw the jam about 15 times, style council probably about 10, and PW over 50 times over the past 30 years since he went solo. My musical hero.
Same as me however I didn’t see TSC as I was abroad as a “Little Boy Soldier” fighting for the British Empire!!
Best band in the world
The Tube was groundbreaking for us kids back then. Less stuffy than Whistle Test and less contrived than Top Of The Pops. It seemed more real, more authentic, more cool. We loved it.
Simply brilliant.
Even better at the end of their career than the start.
Who is even close these days?
@sMansGuitars Way more energy in 1977. The versions of “In The Crowd” and “This Is The Modern World” from this show are pale reflections of their earlier incarnations. “In The Crowd” didn’t need a horn section.
Jesus, we all got old and nobody told us, how did that happen, lol
American fan here. So glad I grew up with their music!
I am a Japanese Fan, and I am a very new Fan of them. What a great Band!! I want grew up with them from now on😊
We were the two fans!
I watched this the evening it was broadcast, The Jam . One of the most important bands of our time.
Me too. Used a cassette player to 'tape' it off the TV.
Me too! Makes me cry thinking about it
I remember it so well. Hard to believe it was 41 years ago, different time, different life.
Weller imo is best songwriter bar none over last 50 years, his ability at such a relatively young age was staggering, the insight in the lyrics far beyond his years. Genius.The energy in the performances, no better band. Thanks for uploading this!
Glad to have experienced the rise and rise of The Jam. When I see what drivel is served up at Glastonbury versus this it certainly puts it all in perspective. Such a raw driving talent with many a Magnus Opus.
The Jam were pure quality. It was Mod at its best. For a band of 3 what a great sound they made
nobody has come close to the Jam. They will always be in my heart
The best rhythm section ever
i saw them , in total 6 times, sleeping in my old ford escort estate in Bridlington in 1982, they have never left me.. Just listening to them brings back such fantastic memories of my youth.. I even have a hand written letter from Pauls mum, who was secretary of the fan club... Priceless
Bruce is still a top bassist now!
He always has been up there with the best of them.
Still one of my favourite bands, never got to see them live, but did get to see ‘From The Jam’ in Hong Kong with Bruce. Got to meet Bruce afterwards, as expected a super guy.
Yeah i saw FTJ few years ago in Wakefield.They were great ,Rusell Hastings sounded more like Weller than Weller lol 😉🇬🇧👍
@@Anglo_Saxon1 you are not wrong :-)
The jam were a force of nature
Best band ever. The energy they create is ridiculous and great to see that they had a proper crowd of Jam fans in the audience. Saw them on tour that year at The Cliffs' Pavillion in Southend (a warm up gig apparently) and they surprised us all by playing what seemed like a greatest hits set after starting with Ghosts - maybe that was a clue of the break up to come? That was probably the best gig I've ever been to, only comparable to the Smiths in terms of crowd intensity.
I remember watching this. I was 14. The Tubby from Tyneside was essential viewing. 😁👍
I am 61 years of age , blessed with 3 things in life. My kids , Liverpool fc and the jam , thankyou Lord 👍
2 things then
beat me to it@@cujimmi
Magic memories....40 yrs ago .....
The Jam my first gig at age 15 at Cliffs Pavilion, Southend, paid £5. Met Paul in Auckland NZ 2010, when he was buying a pizza , was happy to chat and have a photo taken. Saw him three nights in a row that tour.
The Jam was my first gig. Woking YMCA 15th Feb 1980, age 16!
Wow, Weller is being Weller, But BF is an unsung hero.
You're not kidding!
Thank ypu so much uploader. This was essential viewing with my two older sisters . The Tube was so innovative and no matter who played , you somehow enjoyed it because of the atmosphere the show created .
simply fkin brilliant what a band.
Opened with my favourite song from The Gift
The first episode of the tube, can't believe this was 41 years ago, remember sitting watching this on TV and being taken aback the jam were playing their last gig as they were on a commercial 'crest of a wave' at the time.
Awesome quality, thanks for posting
In 1982 when i was sixteen, we went from school to watch em liverpool royal court.
Chadders, Beefy, Tommo , Fenny n me.
The fact that there are no songs here from Setting Sons or Sound Affects shows what a wealth of material the Jam had ….
I absolutely loved that. Thanks for posting. Would have loved to have seen right through to the end of precious, as the groove was going brilliant. Such a tight and formidable threesome, the likes I've not seen since. Truly one of the best bands ever. Weller is a genius.
Thanks for this. Been a while since I saw it. Brings a tear to my eye, knowing they were about done.
Love this band. Cheers mates❤
Couldn’t agree more ,was lucky enough to have seen the Jam live , Dublin 1978 .
Remember watching this when it was first broadcast as a 16year old herbert 🎶🎸😎🙌👍
Class act. Wish I was born then to enjoy it (even though I'd probably not know about them, since I'm not from the UK)
The Jam on The Tube, as good as it gets. My 1 claim to fame is sitting in a pub in Tenby, chatting with Dave Prowse and the juke box stacked with the Jam.
Saw them in concert at the Apollo in Glasgow. Amazing 👏
To think that most in the audience wouldn't be far off 60 now. Time passes quickly
My Generation. And proud!
Stunning, such great times with such great music. The beautiful blonde at 16:49 is probably a glamorous grannie by now xx
Phenomenal remastering. This was the soundtrack to my university years. Good times.
In a time when bands could write amazing songs and perform live without miming.
I know Paul Wellers Lighting Tech .... he's worked with him for 30+ Years. Says he's one of the nicest guys ever. Keeps it real, smokes too. much, but honest and true as the day is long. Just sharing case anyone was wondering. A legend.
The Tube was originally going to be 50% music and 50% local north east stories. I was interviewed and produced a segment on glue sniffing lol, at the last minute they realised bands would come to Newcastle and we were dropped
Best TV performance by The Jam by a mile. Ironically it was their last TV performance 😢
Just awesome memories
Best band in the world 🌏
Not many people can cover Curtis Mayfield and do it justice. Love this version and TSC's as well.
You can see the brass players are sweating to keep up! The play it fast but still incredibly tight.
great to see in such good quality
wonderful many thanks
the jam transmogrifying into the style council before our eyes.
incredible band 😍
The Jam best mod band ever 🇬🇧
They were great! However they were the second best mod band…
Best Mod band ever 😂
there are no words...
The one & only The Jam!
I WAS GUTTED......even wrote to him asking why and got a 6 page response...still got it
The best version of town called malice I’ve ever heard
One of the best Bands all time 🤫
Bruce Foxton 👏
They once went in my aunty's pub many moons ago they were doing a gig in Oldham
My 1981 School report my Head of year put "Seems too pre-occupied with 'The Jam ' ! 😂
The second song has a progression which is Johnny Thunder by the Kinks
Totally does - as does A Bomb In Wardour Street which does a similar thing from Last Of The Steam Powered Trains.
Weller derivative? Surely not! (Start!, Town Called Malice, Changing Man...)
You're going to be good if you're faithful to your best influences like the Kinks and the Who.
Офигенно!!!
Cracking live show Top acts
Bruce using an Aria Pro, rather than a Fender Precision.
He often used Rickenbacker (as did Weller)…
Only used a Ric right at the start. I heard he even used a custom guitar modelled on a Ric looks wise but sounded like a P
Great music
I still havent forgiven Weller for breaking up The Jam
I, too, felt it was stupid to end that band in their prime (over 40 years ago now---their last show was just over a month past this TV appearance). Looking back on it 40 years later, though, there is an upside to Paul Weller ending the band after six years of recording activity. The Jam catalog is pretty high quality---they didn't ever get to the point of releasing mediocre or bad albums, or performing listless, uninspired live shows. Their legacy is totally intact because of this.
@@aljustal6554 Bang on ! and Weller couldn't have possibly maintained that level of energy in live performances when he was already moving on in his tastes . To end The Jam when he did was a gutsy and authentic move ... the legacy of six albums is there for all to enjoy , as is the fantastic five albums of TSC which followed.
Nor have i and i never will, but the passage of time has proved it was the right decision for obvious reasons. Nostalgia is a very powerful thing though 40 years later.😊
Are you serious? The Gift was a poor LP, he should have folded the band after Sound Affects, their greatest album.
@@LaughingStock_ The Gift is not a typical The Jam album, but it's a marvelous album on its own. The compositions, production and performance are first class. And it's soul and funk. Which is very very fine.
9:55 - 10:20 = the Jam
100%
Awesome memories 😅 👏
知らない曲ばっかりだけど、カッコイイバンドだなあ。
Brillant, the jam favorite mod band❤
Fresh intellectual youths.where have they gone. They died in the year 2000
Poole Arts Centre (!) 1980 - unforgettable
succumb to the beat shurrender... what a performance. Talbot on organ?
Solid 80’s Rock
The best fucking band in the world!!❤x
A Town Called Malice 🤗👍👍
MOD is still a live...........
Class
You kind of can tell they're transitioning into style counsel mode with the horn section
fire and skill
brilliant
Cool jumper in the front row.
Not much interaction between Weller and Foxton Seems they were already in the throws of splitting up Terrific band in the days of All mod cons and Setting Sons
Good times.
Ironic that they rarely seemed as musically and stylistically together as they did on this tour- but I think it was when Weller realised that Foxton wasn’t a good enough song writer/ musician and Buckler was a limited drummer which wasn’t going to work where his music was going ie The Style Council . However- Weller should have given more credit to them for their part in The Jam sound.
Weller sacrificed a lot by the end of 82. I think he told already everything that needs to be told at that time. A blend of Punk, Soul, Latin and even Disco. He just repeated everything with TSC and his solo work in a slightly different way even when 80‘s drum machines came into play.
Paul Weller may have wrote the songs but would tracks like 17:26 beat surrender sound as good if Bruce foxton hadn’t played his bassline on it? Why split up? They were great at the time as a band. 🤔
Ahhh ...The Tube..a pop show that teenagers could attend without fear of being sexually assaulted.....
This was years before he starred in Hamish Macbeth.
soppy lil kids who don't know the quality they're watching
