A rare never-before-seen collection of limited edition photographic prints of Britain's best loved band "The Jam".
Saturday 6th October until Saturday 20th October.
The Movie Poster Gallery, 1 Colville Place, London W1T 2BG.
Twenty selected photographs from the forthcoming photographic book "The Jam Unseen" will be on sale for the first time as a series of limited edition prints for a limited time only at London's The Movie Poster Gallery from Saturday 6th October to Saturday 20th October 2007. The exhibition will display rare never-before-seen photographs of the original Jam line-up – Bruce Foxton (bass, vocals), Paul Weller (vocals, guitar) and Rick Buckler (drums).
The exhibition coincides with the 30th Anniversary of The Jam and when they originally signed to Polydor Records in 1977, and also follows hot on the heels of the forthcoming photographic book "The Jam Unseen" published by Cyan Books on 6th August 2007.
In 1981, Rick Buckler, appointed 21-year old Neil "Twink" Tinning to become The Jam's official photographer. For two years Twink documented life with The Jam on the road, live on stage and behind-the-scenes leading up until their farewell concert in 1982 and the Brighton Centre.
One of the highlights of the exhibition will be the triptych photos of each member of The Jam running towards the camera - the same photos that originally graced The Jam's final 1982 studio album "The Gift". Now, for the first time, fans and collectors alike will be able to buy all three iconic images as they were originally photographed before they made it to final album artwork.
The exhibition also occurs one month before two-thirds of the original line-up of The Jam, Bruce Foxton (bass, vocals) and Rick Buckler (drums) embark on a timely nationwide UK tour under the moniker of "From The Jam: Bruce Foxton and Rick Buckler".
The 20-date UK Autumn tour kicks off at the Plymouth Pavilions on 24th November, and takes in cities including Cardiff, Grimsby, Liverpool, Glenrothes, Preston, Leicester, Leeds, Nottingham, Manchester, Sheffield, Bristol, Southampton, Norwich, Newcastle, Glasgow, Cambridge, Birmingham, and London.document.write(unescape("
