Love with a Passion Called Hate: The Inside Story of the Jam

Meer over het boek

The narrative explores the journey of a band initially dismissed as uncool suburbanites who rose to prominence by embodying punk ideals of social protest and authenticity. With 18 hits and celebrated albums, they maintained a strong connection with fans while rejecting commercialism. Their split in 1982, viewed as a testament to their integrity, reveals a more complex reality marked by internal conflicts. Sean Egan's extensive interviews with band members and insiders provide a comprehensive and nuanced biography, capturing the fervor and cultural impact of The Jam.
