"About The Young Idea" is the story of The Jam. It charts their career from formation in the early seventies, through the heady days of chart success and on to their break up in 1982. The programme features extensive, brand new interviews with Paul Weller, Bruce Foxton and Rick Buckler alongside archive performance footage and new contributions from fans, journalists and many involved in the band's career. The package contains "About The Young Idea" on Disc One and "When You're Young", The Jam's performance on famous German TV show Rockpalast from 1980 on Disc Two.

As Bonus Features on Disc One of "About The Young Idea" we include not only additional interviews not included in the broadcast version transmitted by Sky Arts in September, but also four extra live tracks. Two were recorded at The Rainbow, London in 1979, namely, 'It's Too Bad' and 'Saturday's Kids'. We also include a pair from a show at The Ritz, New York City, May 1981, 'The Modern World' and 'The Eton Rifles'.
