The Jam were an English punk rock band formed in Woking, Surrey in 1972. Comprising of Paul Weller on vocals and guitar, Bruce Foxton on bass guitar, and Rick Buckler on drums, they achieved widespread popularity during the late 1970s and early 1980s with their catchy tunes and socially conscious lyrics.
Known for their energetic live performances and distinctive mod style, The Jam became one of the most influential bands of the British punk movement. Their music blended elements of punk, new wave, and mod revival to create a unique sound that resonated with audiences across the UK.
With hits like "Town Called Malice," "Going Underground," and "That's Entertainment," The Jam left a lasting impact on the music industry. Despite disbanding in 1982 after just six years together, their legacy continues to inspire generations of musicians today.

Originally released in 1983, Snap! was the first ‘greatest hits’ collection from The Jam and appeared just after Paul Weller took the shock decision to split up the band at the height of their popularity and success. The title Snap! originates from the production, the A&amp;R team and the band in the studio listening back to recording sessions and deciding if the track had the necessary distinctive Jam ‘snap’ sound to make the cut…!! The original 29-track album with chronological sequencing clearly illustrates their brief but stunning story, from explosive debut on the embryonic English punk scene and their meteoric rise to become one of the greatest and best-loved British bands. From their thrilling debut single – In The City to their farewell – Beat Surrender the collection features 16 top-30 singles – 4 number ones! Features hit singles – Down In The Tube Station At Midnight, Strange Town, When You’re Young, Going Underground, That’s Entertainment, Start!, Town Called Malice, The Eton Rifles and many more. Also includes remarkable B-side tracks such as The Butterfly Collector and Tales from the Riverbank. Released in a gatefold sleeve, with original artwork – printed inner sleeves and original ‘free’ live 7” EP. Remastered at Abbey Road, first time on vinyl for many years!
