Beat Surrender, The Jam’s 1993 retrospective, provides a brilliant overview of the band’s development.
A fantastic introduction to a band whose genre-crossing legacy defies categorization, Beat Surrender serves up much more than just The Jam’s biggest hits.
Sure, here you’ll find iconic tunes like the title track, ‘That's Entertainment’, and ‘Town Called Malice’, but the inclusion of key album tunes like ‘Pretty Green’ and ‘Private Hell’ that make this much more interesting, along with iconic cover versions that reveal the story behind the band’s influences; their love of 60’s soul in Wilson Pickett’s ‘In the Midnight Hour’ and of all things mod in their version of The Who's Batman theme tune.
