My first record i ever bought was Funeral Pyre,my first gig was The jam in 82 at the apollo ,wagged school to go piccadilly records on a friday morn to get my ticket £4.50 + 50p booking ,cantstill remember walking down the stairs at piccadilly records,the buzz of just about to buy my ticket lol

Anybody who grew up around the time of the jam has got to read this book as you will easily relate to it ,great read.

A man at the top of his profession -

Puts up the closed sign does the man in the corner shop
Serves his last and says goodbye to him
He knows it is a hard life
But it's nice to be your own boss really
Walks off home does the last customer
He is jealous of the man in the corner shop
He is sick of working at the factory
Says it must be nice to be your own boss (really)
Sells cigars to the boss from the factory
He is jealous is the man in the corner shop
He is sick of struggling so hard
He says "It must be nice to own a factory"
Go to church do the people from the area
All shapes and classes sit and pray together
For here they are all one
For God created all men equal

and..............


I was hoping we'd make real progress -
But it seems we have lost the power
Any tiny step of advancement
Is like a raindrop falling into the ocean -
We're running on the spot - always have - always will?
We're just the next generation of the emotionally crippled.
Though we keep piling up the building blocks
The structure never seems to get any higher
Because we keep kicking out the foundations
And stand useless while our lives fall down.
I believe in life - and I believe in love
But the world in which I live in - keeps trying to prove me wrong.

Out in the pastures we call society
You can't see further than the bottom of your glass
Only young but easily shocked
You get all violent when the boat gets rocked -

Just like sheep - little lambs into the slaughter
Don't fully grasp what exactly is wrong -
Truth is you never cared - still -
You get all violent when the boat gets rocked -

Intelligence should be our first weapon
And stop reveling in rejection
And follow yourselves, not some ageing drain brain
Whose quite content to go on feeding you garbage
We're running on the spot - always have - always will?
We're just the next generation of the emotionally crippled.Genius
 
tears and more tears

i always had a sneaky warmth for the jam.....

i was an OI skin back in the days, rather than the usual nutty boy skin

it was ok for nutty boy skins to like the jam as they were part of the movement and after all the skinheads developed from a lot of the old scooter clubs....i mean FFS, we even pinched the fish tail parka style from the mods

however, as an OI skin (punk) it was always frowned upon to be associated with the likes of the jam, etc

so for me, i kept my record collection very much under wraps and away from my exploited, crass and SHAM 69 collections


saying that i moved immediately on from being a skinhead and grew my hair into a flat-top to follow a certain group, around july 1983 ;)

When you go to bed tonight ,
Don't worry bout us cos we're alright.
Hersham Boys,Hersham Boys,
Laced up boots & corduroys.

Being the big kid I am, my favourite bit of that song is "GO ON GRANDAD"...."you just hold on now boys".
 
English Rose, was the background music recently on Foxtv . What a tune, anyone post the words
 
No matter where I roam
I will return to my English rose
For no bonds can ever tempt me from she
I've sailed the seven seas,
Flown the whole blue sky.
But I've returned with haste to where my
Love does lie.
No matter where I go I will come back to my English Rose
For nothing, "could" ever "keep" me from she.
I've searched the secret mists -
I've climbed the highest peaks
Caught the wild wind home
To hear her soft voice speak
No matter where I roam
I will return to my English Rose
For no bonds can ever keep me from she.

I've been to ancient worlds
I've scoured the whole universe
And caught the first train home
To be at her side.
No matter where I rome
I will return to my English Rose
For no bonds, can ever keep me from she
