The Eton Rifles - From The Jam (Official Video) video free download
This is live music at its best. From the Jam perform The Jam's first Top 10 hit "The Eton Rifles", which originally charted at No. 3 in the UK Top 40. This song was the only Jam song not to have an official video recorded and was the only single to be released by The Jam from the original "Setting Sons" album in 1979. "The Eton Rifles" is about the difficulties faced by unemployed and lower paid working class people protesting against a system loaded against them.
This performance comes from the "From the Jam - A 1st Class Return" concert Live at the Forum in December 2007. From the Jam kick off at full speed, each one complimenting the other and the material as fresh as when it was at the top of the UK Charts! They turned a chilly night in North London into a rhythm inferno, and in doing so, rewrite modern world anthems for the 21st century!
From the Jam line up:
Bruce Foxton - Bass Guitar, Acoustic Guitar and Vocals.
Rick Buckler - Drums.
Russell Hastings - Lead Vocals, Guitar and Acoustic Guitar.
Dave Moore - Guitar, Bass, Keyboards and Backing Vocals.

I still can't see how Weller couldn't have made the musical transition he went through after The Jam split with Bruce and Rick. He was already well able to add extra musicians when needed, as in The Gift, for example. The really annoying thing for me is that his sound these days is basically The Jam 2 anyways....I mean "From the floorboards up", "Fast car slow traffic", etc etc...Related Videos
