@Vickipedia - I just know the songs that everyone knows, but I am going to start afresh with IN THE CITY and find out what my true favorites are. Thanks for the encouragement!
The adrenaline rush of In The City will draw you in. Careful with Modern World - with the best will in the world, it is a bit of a clunker, High points are All Mod Cons, Setting Sons and Sound Affects. The Gift is The Gift - the sound of the band changes, and the album (great as it is) does suffer when compared to the last 3. Shameless self-promotion time - http://rigiddigithasissues.blogspot.co.uk/2012/09/jam.html

Nice. Have you checked out the rest of The Jam's catalog? Great band.

Yup, same here. The lyrics in The Jam version still sound out of order to me.
