The Jam - BBC Sessions, Volume 4: Rainbow Theatre, London, Britain, 12-4-1979

The Jam played a concert for the BBC almost every year they were in existence. So, another year, another concert. 

In November 1979, one month before this concert, the Jam released the album "Setting Sons." It's a classic five-star album in my opinion, and naturally the band played a lot of songs from it.

There's not much else to say. The sound quality is excellent, as you'd expect from the BBC. This was officially released as part of "The Jam at the BBC," as a limited edition bonus disc.

This album is 59 minutes long.

The cover photo, just of lead singer Paul Weller, is from this very venue in the same month of 1979. However, the band played there four times that month, so I don't know if it's from this exact show.
