Synopsis

The Jam exploded onto the British music scene with the single ‘In The City’ in 1977 and departed just six years later with the No.1 single ‘Beat Surrender’, clocking up thirteen Top 20 hits including ‘Going Underground’, ‘The Eton Rifles’, ‘Down In The Tube Station At Midnight’, ‘Start!’ and ‘Town Called Malice’.

Breaking through as part of the British punk scene and topping both the UK singles and album charts four times, The Jam’s commercial success is matched only by the affection in which the band are still held. Solid Bond In Your Heart celebrates that affection, as over 500 fans and associates of The Jam share memories of more than 200 concerts.

With a foreword by Paul Weller and contributions from Bruce Foxton, Rick Buckler, Steve Brookes, Steve Carver, Paolo Hewitt, Mick Talbot, Debsey Wykes (Dolly Mixture), Ray Gange (Rude Boy), Den Davis, Ian Prowse, Howard Smith, Dave Fenton & Ed Bazalgette (The Vapors), John Robb (The Membranes), Brett Ascott (The Chords), Billy Doherty & Mickey Bradley (The Undertones), Dave Hemingway (Housemartins/ Beautiful South), Attila The Stockbroker, Nicky Weller & broadcaster Gary Crowley, The Jam remain an iconic band for thousands of fans. This is their story.
