A sharp, soulful and rhythm‑driven final chapter from The Jam, The Gift blends mod energy with funk‑leaning grooves and some of Paul Weller’s most melodic songwriting. This 2014 European Back To Black reissue presents the album in clean stereo with strong clarity, capturing the band’s shift into a more expansive, groove‑focused sound while still holding onto their trademark bite.
