\"\"<\/a>THE JAM \u2013 CLASSIC ALBUM SELECTION<\/p>\n

6 Albums in one box – released December 3rd (Universal)<\/p>\n

On December 3rd Universal release a set of all The Jam\u2019s classic albums in one nifty little box. Packaged in individual vinyl-replica CDs with rigid slipcases, and would fit nicely into any music fan\u2019s Christmas stocking, the albums featured are:<\/p>\n

1. In The City
\n2. This is the Modern World
\n3. All Mod Cons
\n4. Setting Sons
\n5. Sound Affects
\n6. The Gift<\/p>\n

This complete studio album collection is released to mark the 30th anniversary of the band\u2019s startling split in 1982 \u2013 at the height of their success and fame, and when principal singer and songwriter Paul Weller was juts a mere 24 yrs old! The Jam were one of the most popular bands to emerge from the British punk rock scene in 1977 (although not technically a \u2018punk\u2019 band); along with the Sex Pistols, Clash, Buzzcocks. They had the most impact on pop music in their short career with18 consecutive Top 40 singles in the UK (including 4 number 1s). The Jam had a fanatical following and their gigs would sell out within minutes. Still beloved of original fans and new supporters through Weller\u2019s solo career \u2013 he still plays many of the Jam songs in his live sets today.<\/p>\n

1. In The City<\/strong>
\n\u00b7 Debut LP from May 1977. Influenced by The Who & Dr Feelgood..
\n\u00b7 Includes hit single \u2013 In The City and Weller\u2019s most ambitious early song \u2013 Away From The Numbers<\/p>\n

2. This Is The Modern World<\/strong>
\n\u00b7 Follow-up, released a few months after debut in late 1977.
\n\u00b7 Includes hit single The Modern World<\/p>\n

3. All Mod Cons<\/strong>
\n\u00b7 Landmark album from 1978 that marked a turning point in The Jam’s career, Weller’s more melodic, complex, and lyrically incisive song-writing heavily influenced by The Kinks.
\n\u00b7 Includes the classic hit singles Down In The Tube Station At Midnight, and double A-side David Watts \/ ‘A’ Bomb in Wardour Street.<\/p>\n

4. Setting Sons<\/strong>
\n\u00b7 Released at the end of 1979, number four in the U.K. and their first charting album in the U.S.
\n\u00b7 Loosely conceived as a \u2018concept\u2019 album, with a distinct link between key songs – Thick As Thieves, Little Boy Soldiers, Wasteland and Burning Sky.
\n\u00b7 Includes hit singles \u2013 Eton Rifles (one of David Cameron\u2019s favourites, bizarrely) and Smithers-Jones.<\/p>\n

5. Sound Affects<\/strong>
\n\u00b7 The ambitious, experimental Sound Affects followed in 1980, moving away from the classic Jam sound it made number two in the U.K. At the time Weller considered the album a cross between Off the Wall and Revolver and cites it as his favourite Jam album.
\n\u00b7 Includes no. 1 single Start! and one of the band\u2019s most cherished songs \u2013 That\u2019s Entertainment .<\/p>\n

6. The Gift<\/strong>
\n\u00b7 The band\u2019s final studio album from 1982 and first number 1 album \u2013 a departure from the harder Jam sound, including more soul and funk influences that would preface Weller\u2019s next project – The Style Council.
\n\u00b7 Includes the double A-side number 1 single Town Called Malice \/ Precious. – the band became the first group since the Beatles to play two songs on BBC’s Top of the Pops.<\/p>\n
