was david watts the first oi song lol gonk
Why ask such a question gonk? Could it have anything to do with alcohol or is it drug related lol?
What was the best Jam single in your opinion?
first song i remember where they shout oi , years before oi movement
ps best single was definately thats entertainment, still sounds as good today
Still can't work out where they shout Oi but never mind
Yes Thats Entertainment is ace song.
I'm going for Down In The Tubestation At Midnight.
and i wish i could have all he has got OI lol, have u heard demo versions on mod cons 30th anniversary edition, brilliant, tube station lyrics are a masterpiece, but thats entertainment makes hair on my neck stand up, gives macgowan a run for his money lyric wise
Lyrically Weller was excellent Gonk. No question of that.
'Modern World' for me, just for the anger & bile and sheer excitement of thing.

Weller shouts out 'Oi' at the start of "All Around the World", which gets my vote for best.
I prefer all the ten first singles. Hope you put up more Jam.
Going Underground was a fav at the time.
Best wishes from Sweden
Best Jam single? All of them. Kind of biased on that. But if I did have to chose it would be Going Underground, though That's Entertainment come a close second. And yes the song with Oi shouted was indeed All Around The World

I'm with you Longy, 'Down In The Tube Station At Midnight' gets my vote.
I rather love "Strangetown" - 2 reasons - it's just ace - I love the guitar intro on it - and secondly - i bought it for a girl i fancied at the time - the cheapest ... well you know the rest
Cheers for all your opinions chaps.
theres a couple more Jam singles over on asbos excellent blog

Going Underground is my fave with Start, Tube Station close behind. The Double A side Strange Town Butterfly Collector is nice too.
I'm a hopeless Jam fan.
I think alot of us are hopeless Jam fans. My fave of alltime!!!!
It has to be That's Entertainment for me.
That is a great song Darren and has to be up there with the best.
