Album Description 2007 UK reissue of The Jam's 1977 sophomore album comes packaged in a miniature LP sleeve. Not as raw as their debut album, This Is The Modern World found The Jam breaking out of their Punk chains and allowing their '60s influences (The Who, The Kinks, etc) to shine through. 13 tracks including 'Modern World', 'London Girl' and 'Tonight At Noon'. Polydor. Similar CDs

CD ReviewsUnder rated greatness! L Salisbury | Maryland United States | 09/08/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "I don't know why everyone (including the band themselves) consider this the Jam's weakest LP. I think it's their second best effort (right after the masterpiece "Setting Sons"). The songs are more focaced and melodic than on "In the City". Plus, "Modern World" rocks out a lot more than "All Mod Cons" (which is also a great album). True, at the time, this LP wasn't too well received- it was recorded and released only MONTHS after their debut. It was thought to suffer from "second album shortage"- a common problem among late 70s punk bands. (The same was said for the follow ups of the Damned, the Dead Boys and Slaughter & the Dogs- all great albums today.) Even if you're not a hardcore Jam fan give "Modern World" a chance... right after "SEtting Sons"!"
