THE JAM : EL MOCAMBO, TORONTO, 21/3/78

Excellent item this morning - early-ish Jam live boot from the El Mocambo, Toronto, Canada, March 21st, 1978. (A sought after Elvis Costello live bootleg was also recorded here). Great, rare track listing in that there are few tapes / recordings still in existence from this period. This sees a selection from the first two albums plus a handful of early singles tracks. Just uploading some more Jam material - selection of out-takes & demos from 1975 - 81... watch this space. Comments & feedback is, as usual, more than welcome... its only a handful of faithful blog regulars that seem to be leaving anything at all, despite the always very healthy download figures from Rapidshare...c'mon, get in touch !!!
