  One of the greatest bands... ever. I realize this is a subjective statement, but I really can&apos;t see how anyone who appreciates Rock &amp; Roll can&apos;t acknowledge the brilliance of The Jam.

  Wonderful footage here. &nbsp;I came to The Jam late--1982 in the U.S. Intermountain West. &nbsp;They&apos;ve been my favorite band ever since. &nbsp;All Mod Cons is great material; I like Sound Affects best, but All Mod Cons represented the Jam&apos;s promise. &nbsp;Once a mod forever a mod... &nbsp;

  Went to see them in Bristol when I was 17 years old on December 8th 1980, the day John Lennon was shot. &nbsp;It was just like Paul said it was. &nbsp;We went down to the sound check in the afternoon and met the band and they chatted with us and signed our albums and singles which I still have. &nbsp;Later on at the gig Paul came over to talk to me which was really cool because I was with a girl I wanted to impress and her jaw dropped when he came over. &nbsp;In our conversation I asked him if they were going to dedicate a song to John Lennon. &nbsp;They later played Butterfly Collector and Paul dedicated it to Lennon. &nbsp;Great band and great guys who really appreciated their fans.

  THIS band... moves on a different plain. The sound,look and the contents of the songs, their interaction with their fans, and their fans response to the band. Looking back, we can NOW see it- because we are those fans. Don&apos;t hold your breath waiting for the R&amp;R hall of fame to figure it out...they won&apos;t. Be content, and hold them close to your heart-more than a band; a soundtrack to a lifetime... a template for how and who to be.

  I was introduced to The Jam by a friend that I got into a rock band with. He played All Mod Cons for me and I was hooked. Fortunately, I found out that they were going to perform at Richie Coliseum in College Park, Md. in 82&apos;, purchased tickets and went to the concert instead of my highschool prom... best decision of my life!
