In contrast to its pop-oriented predecessor, The Jam Setting
Sons album features a much harder, tougher production,
albeit with the overarching melodicism common throughout The
Jam’s discography. Arguably, this is their most ambitious
LP. Singer, guitarist, and songwriter Paul Weller conceived
it as a concept album about three boyhood mates who later
reunite as adults after a war to discover they had grown up
and apart. This wasn’t carried through to completion, and it
is unclear exactly which tracks are part of the concept,
though it is commonly agreed that “Thick As Thieves”,
“Little Boy Soldiers”, “Wasteland”, and “Burning Sky” are
the obvious constituents, indeed there exists among bootlegs
a version of “Little Boy Soldiers” split into three separate
recordings which begs the idea that each part of the song
had originally intended to be spread out across the album.
