Every single time this clip appears I have to watch it. I love #TheJam and the energy in this just takes me right back to 77. Glorious!

And Weller is still going strong with a new album out on Friday 🎯🤩🤩

In May 1977, a young 3-piece rock group from Woking in Surrey appeared on #TopOfThePops w/ an explosive single called In The City. The song is 1 of the most incendiary debut singles ever. On May 20, 1977 #TheJam released their exhilarating debut album, also called 'In The City'.

'I wanna tell you about the young ideas....'
#TheJam first single 'In the City', peaked at No. 40 in the UK charts. One of their 18 top 40 hits including four UK No. 1s.

Love indeed tear him apart...
