25.  The Jam

We find that with our next selection that some things just don’t translate; even if it is in the same language. The music of The Jam fits that description, because as huge as they were in their native England, they just couldn’t find a substantial audience in North America.


The Jam was at the forefront of the Mod Revival scene at during the late 70’s and early 80’s and was a vital component in the Post Punk movement.What this band was able to do was mesh the varying styles of Punk, New Wave, Soul and Psychedelic Rock to create a unique and fun sound that was the very definition of English music at the time.Although they did not produce a large amount of albums (only six) in what was an active six year span (1977-1982), their influence can certainly be heard in the British bands that followed.The fact that they barely registered on the American radar will likely hurt their overall chances.
