Title: Jam pays Homage to Early Who
Review: Having owned both as separate CDs, I am delighted to see both offered on one. This is an excellent cross-section of the Mod group that, at their peak, were the top group in Britain. Even though I'm American, I always appreciated the gritty back to basics the Jam offered. Clean Rickenbacker guitar chords, punchy bass and precision drumming all drip of early Who - but with a slightly rougher edge. Lyrics laden with anti-societal/parental themes - precursors to what "Rage ATM" are doing today. Definitely the best the Jam had to offer as they slowly got softer with subsequent albums. (Hmm! Just like The Who!) Well worth the buy - highly recommended!!!
