The Jam were the link between punk's anarchic energy and the rebellious cool of the original '60s Mod movement. Paul Weller, Bruce Foxton, and Rick Buckler looked as great as they sounded, bringing an all-important sense of style to the class of '77. By the time of their third album, All Mod Cons, Weller was proving himself as gifted a songwriter as his heroes Pete Townshend and Ray Davies. As the '80s began, an increasing fondness for vintage R&B was coloring The Jam's music. Wanting to move further in that direction, Weller disbanded The Jam in late 1982 to form The Style Council.
