The Jam - Slow Down Live

Yes, this is the Jam live at the Electric Circus in '77. I went and saw them at around the same time at a Pub in London's West Ken called the Nashville. We had to bunk in the side door because of being underage and skint. In fact the bouncer snuck down the back, opened the door for us and charged us all a pound, sorted. The money went straight in his pocket. The Jam were brilliant, not a little unlike the youtube clip. It was hot, sweaty and angry inside and I loved every second. I have never forgotten that gig, it's burned into my memory banks. It really was an amazing time to be a teenager in London.
