This is Saturday's Kids from 1979's Setting Sons, arguably the Jam's best album. It was originally supposed to be a concept album, but apparently the concept petered out. Fortunately the songs that petered in are excellent. None more so than Saturday's Kids, one of the band's most underrated.

Mod-A-Day: The Jam
There are far too many Jam songs that deserve to be more recognized than they were originally, or to be remembered now that time has passed and the band, sadly, is being forgotten.
