Great Album August 28, 2000

The Jam's Sound Afects, although hardly punk, is a great album. It is more like pop rock. Paul Weller was a great song writer and this album shows that. The highlights of the album are Monday, Start!, That's Entertainment and Man In The Corner Shop.
Erm Umm Err......Wow..... January 22, 2000
Rich Bunnell (Milpitas, CA United States)
Simply a wonderful album filled to the brim with wonderful, hooky songs. It's their only album that you can find for cheap in the US and it certainly deserves it, especially with excellent tunes like "Pretty Green," "Set The House Ablaze," "Music For The Last Couple," and "That's Entertainment," one of Weller's most effective narratives. And though "Start!" rather blatantly lifts its bassline from the Beatles' "Taxman," it doesn't matter considering that they build an entirely new melody around it which equals, if not surpasses, the original masterpiece. The only slightly-boring song is "Scrape Away," but that's no biggie. Get this album. NOW!
This is what makes Britpop so great! February 8, 2000

I was actually very pleasantly surprised to find quite a few American fans of The Jam. I think it's such a shame that Paul Weller never made it as big in America as he did in England. Feel that he is probably one of the most talented musicians of all time. Although, the songs are not as polished and refined as the stuff he did on "Wild Wood" and "Heavy Soul", there is this raw beauty to every track that makes this album so wonderful to listen to. Songs such as "Start!" and "Pretty Green", just to name a couple off the top of my head are just so upbeat and energetic, you can't help but get them stuck in your head for hours after you've finished listening to the album. This album is a must have for all fans of Blur, Pulp and yes even Oasis. Heck, Paul Weller did appear on their hit song "Champagne Supernova" after all (the only redeeming quality of the song). You won't be disappointed.
a mod masterpiece September 25, 1999
this is the jam's finest moment. weller at the height of his considerable powers. man in the corner shop. set the house ablaze. boy about town. close your eyes....it's 1965. 100% pure mod ethic. that's entertainment, indeed.
