The Jam had amazing chart success with 18 singles and 7 albums to make the top 40 in the United Kingdom from their debut in 1977 to their break up in 1982. Their last 5 albums were all top ten hits and their last 8 singles made it into the top 10. Just Who Is the 5 O'Clock Hero? made the charts at no 8 as an import and remains the best-selling import singles of all time in the UK.

THE BAND

​

​Russell Hastings had been working with Bruce Foxton  from 2006 when Russell and Rick Buckler were touring with The Gift which was formed in 2004.  Russell has been the only frontman to work with both Rick Buckler and Bruce Foxton since Paul Weller.  His passion and understanding of The Jam's history is second to none and has toured the world playing to packed houses of Jam fans for years.   The Jam fans have openly accepted Russell as the man that fills Paul's shoes admirably and respectfully!

​

Bruce Foxton decided to take life easier and performed his last gig with From the Jam on Friday 8th August 2025 alongside Roger Daltrey & Ocean Colour Scene.
