SKAMANCHACKETT: The Jam Live Rare EP

Welcome To My Blog

Thanks for checking the blog out... Hope it offers something a bit different every now & again. Though I come from a pseudo - Mod background (Soul & Ska in particular), I have a diverse taste in music & hope my varied posts will reflect this.

Cheers Skamanc .... I'm not after your undying gratitude, but please leave your thoughts, comments & opinions on the posts & content. I regularly up- & download material, plus buy and trade items. As such, if I have inadvertently "trodden on anyone's toes" in posting anything then please let me know & accept my apologies. Also please support the artists involved & remember that the blog is merely a pointer toward these various downloads, which are stored elsewhere. Legally, any downloads should not be retained for more than a week. So now I've told you the legal bit !

THE JAM SNAP! LIVE E.P.

Hands up who's still got their freebie live EP from the earliest pressing of Snap ? I have... it was the only reason I skinned myself to buy the double album. A great addition to the Jam collection, as three of the four tracks remain unreleased in any other form.

(Only "Move On Up" was released post-split on a live compilation). ".. Depression" was never a fave of mine, though there is a great version of the beautiful Marriott -Lane track "Get Yourself Together" and what remains one of my Jam highlights all these years later "But I'm Different Now". Download to safeguard your vinyl rarity or to marvel for the 1st time...both cool with me !!
