Punk rocks owners - By: Scarhurzt, 29 Oct 2007 
Whatever people tell me about the ramones: i always say that these guys defined punk music. Still today The Jam is a classic band that will always have a placein my album collection. This CD however is overdoing everything. Punk rock albums are usually very short & having to listen to 20 songs that do all sound extremely simmilar can get tedious. More than this I believe that punk bands very designed for live performances: they had a great attitude to live acts which made them amazing to listen to. The CD takes the heart out of this genre & for that i mark it down. Also there are a few songs could have done without.

MOD ANTHEMS - By: Ziggy Stardust, 07 May 2007 
This album is the soundtrack of my youth - & it still sounds great twenty years on.
Weller was better than DYLAN - wrote better songs than LENNON & wore sharper suits than STING.
Classic anthems that will never die...
BRILLIANT - By: Taylor Williams, 11 Apr 2007 A great collection from the best band of all time.
Weller amd the boys looked the part & always talked the walk.
I want them to reform - but till that day this collection will keep me happy why I wait.

Get SNAP SE instead - By: Richy Fingers, 10 Aug 2006 There's no doubt this is an excellent collection of singles but why buy this when you could buy the SNAP special edition double CD £1 cheaper. That has every song on this "best of" CD plus another 8 including "Away from the numbers" & "English Rose".
Great Singles Act - By: , 26 Mar 2006 This is basically a singles album; not that the Jam didn't produce some excellent albums but if you're a casual or new fan this is probably the one to go for. Most of these songs are great, full of energy & sound as good as they did when the band was kicking, between 1977 & 1982. Personal favourites are When You're Young, Precious, Eton Rifles, A Bomb In Wardour Street & the underated News Of The World, a rare Foxton outing. Paul, mate, you never bettered what you didin this band, then again, few did.
