Watching this on a Saturday evening in 2023, 41 years after they played this show. The tightness of the band and pure energy on display are just phenonmenal. Superb musicians showing us what live shows are all about. The Jam were on another level.

[@guitarzan2626]

Me too, watching it now for the first time. All mod cons❤

So true. And hardly known in the states which is amazing.

@@jax4538 i was listening to the Jam in 1980 in high school. Still love their music. All mod cons is only second to Quadraphinia as my favorite albums of all time.

同意です！Agree with you totally!!

23 or 24 here with 5 years under his belt with the band and ready to make a complete left turn in the space of a year.

[@lordrex71]

This is great! Danish TV, where they make bands actually play their songs and not lip sync, The Jam where more then up for it!

[@peterconnolly76]

Running On The Spot was always a personal favourite 😍

[@timcarter7833]

Phenomenal! Current music doesn't hold a candle to this greatness!!

[@LordOfTheThreeWorlds]

I keep asking who plays today with this ferocity and intensity - a couple of good bands out there but way to many just dingle around some computer generated nonsense. This is the real deal jack

[@mancavemusician]

Performance like that show the pure musicianship. No hiding behind effects when you are live like this!

[@kurtschultz9807]

Wow. Great performance. I never saw this. The band was playing so well. Powerful singing by Paul. This is just spectacular.

[@seanmonaghan1477]

What s great performance.

[@rochdale33]

I saw them 7 weeks later at the Kerrisdale Arena in Vancouver BC, STILL the most intense concert I've ever seen. 77 minutes too.

[@hughzapretti-boyden9187]

Shame you didn't see them in 77,78 or 79. By this time the writing was already on the wall & Weller had already sorted out his 'solo' deal with Polydor.

[@steveengland3331]

I saw them there too. I had previously seen them at The Commodore a couple of years earlier

[@RebeccaTurner-ny1xx]

Great performance. The TV production is clear and without any of the 'artistic' elements that so many live video directors think they need to insert. If only more were of this quality even today.

[@tonys9102]

Agreed. I despise those circular swooping camera moves. They try to make things look exciting, but what they cameramen are actually saying is "The music isn't exciting enough, so we need to spice it up." Not the case here!

[@dburt0021]

Sounds amazing! You can actually hear Bruce’s Fender P-Bass quite clearly

Ungodly restoration! 👌 Foxton could’ve lit half of Copenhagen w the static electricity comin off that megawatt mullet. 😮‍💨

Great to see. Clear and vivid. Nice performance. It's striking that although there were strong tracks in 1982, the best song here is In The Crowd from 1978.

I thought "Ghosts" was worth the listen, too.

“Alright then love I’ll be off now. It’s back to the lunchbox and worker-management rows”. Could anyone else have written, much less gotten away with that line? Amazing band. In college, The Jam were my Five O’Clock Heroes.

[@vanessaware1272]

Loved it!! 🥰

[@ChrisW444]

Not seen that before. Awesome.

[@jocksilver7]

''Running on the spot'' is such a corker of a Classic! 41 years ago I went downtown and bought the album instead of taking some written exams at the Uni. Neat British pressing that didn't make me regret flunking the subject - it still spins on the RP and i was only ''running on the spot'' for a couple of months, and finished the curriculum subject. Actually, ROTS musically reminds me of ''Setting Sons'', in a strange way, because no other track from The Gift has the same feeling. It's a very rich period for the Jam, and coincidently the path to their untimely demise.

[@a.k.1740]

👍Quite ! "Running on the Spot" is a rather unique song on The Gift and it would not have been out of place on Setting Sons or even Sound Affects. It remains my favourite track from The Gift. Setting Sons has always been my favourite of their six studio albums.

[@LordOfTheThreeWorlds]

I agree - it's quintessential JAM sound: Coming in on the leading 8th note, driving like a train on the 16th and 32nd beats, layering on the harmonies and again blasting the complex minor chords across a bar, bar and a half maybe bar and three quarters. Quite catchy if I don't say

[@specialagentsnowwolf4367]

Aside from the jam the need to credit the organ player and the trumpet/tambourine player is also great.

[@RAT12345678]

Thanx !!!

@@philipjones7372 Yeah, Weller has never been afraid to er, 'show his influences'.

[@gusbean]

Look Sharp! 🎯

[@ratstevens6515]

Let’s face it, watching this video and similar others, Foxton carries so much of this song & performance. His basslines were sublime, punchy and sexy. Absolutely love the way he moves around too, totally engaged in the music. Without him they’d actually be quite boring to watch, Weller was mightily blessed to have Foxton & Butler. Weller went off to do his own thing, rather like when Sting left the other 2 members of the Police.

[@user-vn1zb9ov8d]

I always felt sad for Foxton; you could see he gave his all for the band & it meant everything to him - to see it all just evaporate must have been tough. Hey ho, could have been worse, he might have been stuck in Woking the rest of his life.....

[@someblokecalleddave1]

This is a long time ago now and I saw them so many times, I seem to recall in the UK in the following Autumn, they announced a tour of relatively small venues and I saw them in Westcliff at the pavilions. There was no album, no major release, just this out of nowhere tour. Weller seemed agitated on stage, I remember him losing it with the lighting technicians and then someone in the crowd and the set was a mish mash going way back into their back catalogue including stuff off In the City and So Sad about us, I said to my mate who I think was seeing them for the first time "I think this is it, I reckon this is the end". Sure enough 1983 saw the start of the Style Council. The performance on stage was like this pretty special - kind of as if a weight was off his mind, but there was still this agitation that was evident.

[@davidmurray2539]

Brilliant band. Constantly analyzing the mostly hapless reality and daily hardships experienced by under-educated working class youth in the pre-dawn of Thatcher era, Britain . Even their optimistic songs were ironic and sad sounding. Pete Townsend expressed the opinion that they'd be better if they "lightened up." The Jam's whole career could be neatly summed up as the dark, heavily overcast, rain-soaked response to The Kinks' "Sunny Afternoon." But I'll always revere Paul Weller as the guy who wrote the greatest single line I've ever heard in a rock song, a pov moment when an angst-filled, strapped for cash teenage kid describes a night out in the city as "gettin' a cabbie, hoppin' on buses, readin' graffiti about slashed/ seat/air fares" in the song, "That's Entertainment." For me, not even Dylan himself could ever have expressed in a line of verse a more searing, explosive depiction of youthful longing, confusion, hopelessness, fear of violence, despair. The collision of images and neurotic emotions impact me still.
